In this episode I unpack Allsup and Baxterโs (2004) publication titled โTalking about music: Better questions? Better discussions!โ which is a short article that discusses open, guided, and closed questions, as well as a framework for encouraging critical thinking through questions. Although this article is published in a music education journal, I discuss potential implications for computer science educators.
