Take Inquiry-Based Learning from Theory to Action
The data shows that inquiry-based learning has positive benefits on student achievement. Yet sometimes, it can feel like bringing inquiry to life is easier said than done.
Incorporating inquiry can be messy and frustrating. But it doesn't have to be. Inquiry-based learning is a dial—not a switch. And it doesn't have to be all or nothing.
Ditch the Supplemental Curriculum Turbulence
Many of the piecemeal supplemental solutions teachers turn to result in a bumpy ride. A recent ASCD study discovered that the supplemental instructional materials teachers turn to often:
1: Are not aligned with standards.
2: Are low quality.
3: Have low depth of knowledge.
4: Include few, if any, learner supports.
