Today, during our class, class members discussed how we ‘trust science’ and use rigorous scientific methods to check facts and theories. Some great comments are " never underestimate the value of a fresh perspective" and " try to explore students' suggestions, even if it was not expected."
As a teacher, we need to be open-minded and encourage students to ask questions. Questioning is critical to learning. In the classroom, I think brainstorming is a useful tool to motivate students to freely express their thoughts and ideas on a topic. There is no right or wrong answer. Everyone could make contributions.
In this fast-changing world, teachers should be co-learner with students. We do not know the answer to everything, but we could strive to support students in their endeavors to find the answers.
