I have a student that asks a question about very minor detail in all aspects of the day. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would simply pull the student aside and politely explain that they would like to allow other students to ask questions. The goal would not be to make the student feel bad, but simply encourage them to give the floor to their fellow students some of the time. In assignments, you could perhaps use more individual based approaches like independent projects.
