Introduction

Inquiry Based Learning
A cycle of inquiry for learning

One example is KWHL:

1.What do we think we Know about the subject?

2.What do we Want to find out about the subject?

3.How are we going to go about finding our answers?

4.What do we anticipate Learning? What have we learned?

5.Can we Apply our learning to other subjects or projects?

6.What new Questions have surfaced through our time of inquiry?


	Within any inquiry-based learning activity or project, the gamut of control must remain flexible. There will be times when the instructor takes control of the learning environment, times when the student exercises more independence and times when instructor and student share the direction for learning.
