Questions that teach
On This Lesson 4 topics
This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.
In this lesson
use questions so authors find problems themselves.
Planned topics
- A good question points at the gap without giving the answer: "what happens if this write succeeds and the event publish fails?"
- Questions teach and build ownership; verdicts build dependence.
- Ask open questions about failure, scale, and change.
- If the author cannot find it after a question or two, state the concern directly.

Demonstration
five stock questions: what if it fails halfway, what if it runs twice, what if load is ten times, how will we know it is broken, how do we undo this?
Check your understanding
Why ask rather than tell?
Show answer
Authors learn and own the fix; you build their judgment.
