Tbh it makes sense to me. Maybe the person who's being asked will remember. Or maybe the professor will lead them through the process of figuring the answer out, thus helping them to understand it better.

The professors who never notice raised hands, though? Are the worst. (And yes, I'm a know-it-all...)

Maybe it helps that one person, though I tend to doubt it. Some people just don't process outloud. But its really not useful for the whole class to hear multiple wrong answers and long pauses, though. I feel like in those instances the professor is focusing on one person at the expense of the class as a whole. That sort of thing is more useful for one-on-one meetings.

I guess it depends on the circumstances. I can sort of see what kind of situations you are talking about - I used to witness these cases when a professor would ask a student who not only knew fuck all but was also super unlikely to give anything remotely resembling a reasonable answer.

But I also had professors who'd ask the students who were sort of hazy on the topic and then provide guiding questions for them to follow. And I think it helped, and it wasn't "at the expense of the class". In my experience, when you have a class where this sort of situation is even possible (meaning that not everyone is super enthusiastic about your subject), repeating things is never a bad thing.
