Question

In the following conversation, which discussion technique does Anna most clearly show?

Answer 1

C. Asking clarifying questions.

Ramona first invites Anna to "discuss any issues or questions". Anna begins by explaining her thinking process. She tells her group what her first thoughts were about the theme of the article. Then, she explains how her thinking changed. She finishes by asking a clarifying question about the theme of the article. Her question is very simple and does not hold any bias. She's not asking rhetorical questions because she truly wants to know the answer since she doesn't understand. She is not asking research questions that would involve more work.
