“…Given this research strategy, question-asking showed up as much more than a straightforward information-gathering or clarification-seeking endeavor. Perhaps most vivid among our findings were accounts of how student questions facilitated or detracted from the overall quality of the class experience (Gong & Yanchar, 2019), interpersonal tensions among students that resulted from certain question-asking styles (Yanchar & Gong, 2020), how questions reflect the various overlapping practices of participants (e.g., participants were students in this class, employees at their workplaces, and community members; Gong, 2018; Gong & Yanchar, 2019), and how students’ purposes in asking certain questions were informed by past experiences, present concerns, and future aspirations (Gong, 2018). Ultimately, student questions, and ways of asking questions, showed up as moral–practical commentaries regarding class content (e.g., readings and discussion topics), other students’ conduct, and what mattered to them, including values (often-tacit) that guided what students felt they should or should not do as class members.…”
