It asks students to reconsider what they know, not just to remember it. And that can be uncomfortable. But if we want to prepare young people for a world that is fast-changing, ambiguous and often contradictory, then we have to help them develop the confidence to sit with uncertainty. We have to prompt curiosity, not just deliver conclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Euro University of Bahrain, this is part of our academic culture. Yes, we want our students to succeed in their assessments and careers. But more than that, we want them to ask better questions and to develop the critical judgement to navigate complex realities. That takes time, patience and a very human kind of teaching.<br><br>The most rewarding moments are not when students find the \u201cright\u201d answer, but when they pause and say &#8211; I hadn\u2019t thought about it that way before.<br><br> \u2019           .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good teaching isn\u2019t about transferring knowledge from one person to another.
