Questioning to Make Connections: Richelle White
Richelle White, PhD is Professor of Youth Ministry and Director of Field Practicum and Internships and Kuyper College.
Questioning as a tool of teaching is a skill to be developed and honed. Facilitating dialogue with provocative, poignant, even powerful questions takes consideration and practice. Connecting students with the right questions, especially about turbulent issues and during challenging experiences, can be the precursor to insights and more caring communities.
