This is a questioning strategy that puts the question/answer process in the hands of the students. Instead of the teacher standing at the front of the room asking questions with the same people answering, each student gets the opportunity to ask and answer a question. To create this activity, write and number a list of questions and answers. I color-code so that students know, for example, that the questions are red and the answers are blue. Write question #1 on an index card. Turn it over and write the answer to question #2 on the back. Write question #2 on a second index card, write the answer to question #3 on the back. Go on until you have written all of the questions, then write the answer to the last question on the back of the card with question #1. The person who asks the first question will give the last answer.
This is good for checking understanding, and the students always love it.
