• Quality Homework Assignments - Assigning homework that reinforces learning, encourages real-world application, and offers enriching experiences.
• Question Answer Relationships - QAR teaches learners to classify questions by where their answers come from — in the text, across the text, or from prior knowledge — so they can select the right comprehension strategy for each.
• Question Answering - Learners respond to questions posed by an instructor, system, or peers, requiring them to retrieve, explain, or apply content rather than passively receive it.
• Question Formulation Technique (QFT) - The Question Formulation Technique (QFT) is a structured method for generating and improving questions to develop critical thinking skills, increase self-efficacy, and encourage participation in civic
• Question Generation - Learners formulate their own questions about material — before, during, or after instruction — to activate prior knowledge, direct attention, and deepen processing.
• Question students about why a correct answer was chosen, rather than why an error was made - In self-instructional kit work, the teacher asks "Why did you choose c for number two?" of a CORRECT answer rather than an incorrect one.
• Question-based eLearning Design - An instructional approach that replaces expository presentation with questions learners must answer, driving active information-seeking and knowledge construction.
• Questioning - Questioning is a powerful tool and effective teachers regularly use it for a range of purposes.
• Questioning Techniques - Deliberate use of instructor- and learner-generated questions to activate prior knowledge, elicit thinking, and deepen processing.
• Questioning Techniques to Address Errors - Strategic questioning is used to guide students to recognize their errors and correct their thinking, emphasizing conceptual understanding over rote memorization.
• Questioning The Author - An instructional approach in which students engage with a text through open, author-directed queries ("What is the author trying to say here?") to build understanding during reading rather than after
• Quick Images - A brief flash of a visual quantity or arrangement (e.g., dot cards, ten-frames) that learners reconstruct and discuss, building subitizing, number sense, and structural reasoning.
• Quick Look Cards - Brief, at-a-glance reference cards that give learners just-in-time support during a task without interrupting performance.
• Quick Reflection Prompts - Short, focused prompts at the end of a learning experience that prompt learners to articulate their ideas, consolidate understanding, and surface their thinking for the instructor.
• Quick Writes - Quick Writes are short, focused informational writing tasks completed in under ten minutes, aimed at helping students process, organize, and remember information and ideas.
• Quiet Classroom/Pockets of Quiet - Creating a quiet classroom by reducing background noise to support increased Attention towards learning.
• Quiet Environment/Pockets of Quiet - Reducing background noise in classrooms supports increased learner attention.
• Quiet Signals - Quiet signals are predetermined, typically non-verbal cues used to quickly regain student attention and reduce classroom noise without raising the teacher's voice.
• Quiet Space - Creating a designated quiet space in the classroom allows children to self-regulate and reduce sensory overload by limiting auditory, visual, and other sensory input.
• Quiet Space for Self-Regulation - Designating a quiet space in the learning environment where learners can take breaks to regroup and calm themselves.
• Quiet Time - Quiet time is a structured period of 10–15 minutes where students engage in calming activities like reading, writing, drawing, puzzles, or meditation to transition back into the classroom in a purpose
