DEFINITION | PURPOSE | STEPS FOR PRE-QUESTIONING | EXAMPLE | PRACTICE |
Pre-questioning involves presenting students with a set ofwritten questions (Royer et. al., 1983) or having students generate their own questions on the topic of the reading passage (Taglieber et.al., 1983).” (Grellet 1981:62). Pre-questioning also “functions to get students to predict within a context area what the text will be about” before studying the text (Carrell 1988:247). They make students “aware of what they wish to learn about the topic”(Grellet 1981:62), since these questions set purposes for reading. | The aim of the activity is two-fold. As Carrell (1988:247) points out, “pre-questioning functions to motivate students to read what follows for a purpose, that is, to gain the requisite information to answer the question. Being motivated is one of the most important factors that can help students in the process of reading”. “The morestudents look forward to reading and anticipate in their minds what the text could hold in store for them, the easier it will be to grasp the main points of the passage | You can also write out a series of questions you expect to be answered when reading:
