How to use the verb State in a course or learning design

To incorporate the 'State' verb in your learning design, you can prompt the learner to articulate their understanding or recall of information. Start questions with "Can you tell us how" to encourage learners to express their knowledge actively. For example, "Can you tell us how photosynthesis occurs?" This prompts the learner to demonstrate their understanding by explaining the process. This type of questioning can be used in various educational settings, such as quizzes, discussions, or presentations, to assess comprehension and solidify learning. By asking learners to state information, educators can gauge their ability to articulate concepts accurately,aiding in retention and application of knowledge. Encouraging learners to state information helps them move beyond simple recognition to comprehension and verbalization of content. This fosters active engagement and deeper learning. Be sure to provide feedback or reinforcement after the learner has stated their response to further support their learning process.
