Questions play a fundamental role in classroom interaction. In particular, in Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) classrooms the strategic use of questions can strongly influence the learning process regarding both language and content. This paper emphasizes the interplay between questions, classroom discourse, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology in CLIL contexts. It categorizes questions as procedural, display, or referential, looking into their implications and potential in terms of providing occasions for scaffolding in classroom interaction and fostering both language and content processing and learning. Moreover, it underscores the pivotal role of well-crafted prompts in guiding generative AI to aid educators in fostering critical thinking, knowledge construction, and language development among students.
