Definition and meaning
Closed questions are questions that can be answered with a limited set of responses — most commonly a simple 'yes' or 'no', or a selection from predefined options. They are used to gather specific, factual information quickly and efficiently. In presentations and training settings, closed questions are useful for gauging audience understanding, confirming agreement, or running quick polls. While efficient, they offer little depth and should be balanced with open-ended questions when richer feedback or discussion is needed.
