The Research on the Influence of Teacher's Questioning Strategies on the Silence in College English Classroom Teaching

This study examines the impact of teachers 'questioning strategies on student silence in contemporary college English classrooms. Classroom silence is not merely a reflection of individual student states but is closely tied to the effectiveness of teachers' questioning methods. Through a combination of questionnaire surveys, interviews, and classroom observations, the research analyzes how the fairness of questioning, waiting time, and strategic design influence classroom interaction. The findings demonstrate that optimizing questioning strategies can significantly reduce classroom silence and enhance student engagement, providing both theoretical and practical foundations for reforming college English teaching.
