task: Teachers should encourage their students to question everything.
I can not say unambiguously whether teachers should make their students doubt about everything or not. Such habit to doubt everything in some cases can be useful but in other cases – damaging.
Doubts often lead to better knowledge, to the opportunity to discover more. If a student is not sure about something he probably will search the information, check different resources in order to find the most precise answer for the issue he is unsure with. Thus, he becomes more educated and more confident in the field that made him uncomfortable before. However, questioning everything can really hinder learning at school because it means that the student does not respect and believe his teacher enough to be sure in his words.
Additionally, when a student has questions he is usually inquisitive and likes to study. In this case, it is a pleasure for a teacher to have such students in a class. But it may be not as good for a student himself. It is important for his further life, especially professional life, to be able to concentrate in some special field of study, not be interested in just everything.
In sum, teachers should encourage their students to question the information given for them but do it very carefully. It is very easy for teachers instead of pushing students forward in learning just lose their position as a good teacher in the class.
