Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Student questions are key to classroom interaction. By asking questions, students seek new knowledge and express interest. The research conducted on 187 high school students aimed to analyze attitudes about the importance and frequency of, and anxiety when asking questions. The data were collected using a customized questionnaire by the authors Doğan and Yucel-Toy (2020). The results show neutral attitudes towards questions and a low frequency of asking questions. Anxiety is below average, with a lower level in male students. The importance of the questions is rated above average, and students with lower achievement consider the questions less important. Further research could explore the connection between students’ attitudes and the reasons why they do not choose to ask questions, contributing to the improvement of learning.
