A teacher remains silent for a few moments after asking a question and looks across the class. What purpose does this strategy serve?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Increase thinking time and participation

The governing concept is wait time, a purposeful pause after asking a question. Silence gives students time to process the question, organise an answer, and gain confidence to participate. Looking across the class also signals that responses are welcome from everyone, so option A is correct. The pause is not necessarily punishment or withdrawal, and nothing in the situation suggests that the teacher is changing the topic.
