The role of inquiry based teaching from what I've read from the brief and from the other two activities is to allow students to explore deeper meanings behind content. Teachers are a guide and the students are the main characters.

IBL helps with student achievement because students are actively engaged in the matierial, as they are the entities responsible for the learning. In turn students become more motivated because they are responsible for their own learning. Highly motivated students are more likely to graduate, have a successful career, and are able to easily organize information and ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
If students are only ever asked to recall and understand, they will not be able to make deeper connections with the content. IBL provides students with an opporunity to be curious and ask questions to help them understand the content.

Student burnout is the biggest challenge I normally face when it comes down to IBL. It is much easier to shrug your shoulders and say "I don't know" or refuse to complete an assignment, than to think critically about the content. In my opinion many teachers are leaving and have left the field because engaging students to take responsibility in their own learning can be stressful and can cause turmoil between teacher and student if the student does not think they are being "helped" enough.

The role of inquiry based teaching is to create an attitude for scholars where asking questions, thinking deeper and reflecting are part of the classroom every day. Students feel safe to ask questions, define a problem and argue an issue through thinking and reflection. Students become accountable for their own learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers use inquiry-based teaching to engage students, foster collaboration and use questions to investigate and discover ideas and content. It pushes students to think deeper and uses higher levels of thinking and probes students to find answers and ask questions.

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiry based teaching pushes students to think deeper about what they are learning, ask questions rather than just answer them, and become engaged in the learning. Students are collaborating and discovering the answers on their own. They are taking responsibility for learning which leads to success and teaches persistence. They also learn to organize ideas and information in order to understand better.

For teachers, I think one challenge is many of us were not educated this way. Many of us were taught in the 80% lecture environment and need to see Inquiry Based Teaching in action to fully understand it. I also think changing the attitudes of students can be a challenge, so starting from day one using these ideas and strategies to create the culture of the class is important. How often is the teacher the one asking all of the questions? Learning to flip that around where students are asking questions and reflecting on their own learning has to be an intentional process.

to allow students to get a deeper understanding of the topic being discussed as well as practice the higher level questions asking that will help them grow in their content classes.

# data[].attributes.body
we use inquiry based learning to put the learning back on the learner. We want our students to be able to feel comfortable asking these questions in their content classes to increase their learning.

# data[].attributes.body
there are many situations in life in which you have to be able to have hard conversations with your peers and/or superiors that require that level of questioning and they ability to ask questions when things are unclear is something that is okay and prompts growth.

# data[].attributes.body
The role of inquiry based teaching is to encourage dialogue between students and encourage deeper thinking by posing thought provoking questions. Inquiry based teaching also helps students to understand more complex concepts and higher level questions.

# data[].attributes.body
We use inquiry based teaching to try to encourage students to dive deeper into concepts they are learning in class. Inquiry based teaching can be used in order to get students to generate critical thinking questions about concepts.

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiry based teaching can contribute to student success in the classroom by encouraging students to generate questions while they are working through content. Inquiry based teaching can also contribute to success beyond the classroom by creating critical thinkers and problem solvers.

I think there are a couple of potential challenges of inquiry based instruction. Some students are not used to the level of rigor that is associated with inquiry based lessons, and may refuse to participate. This can be due to their thought that the lesson is "too hard". Students may think it is difficult simply because it is not a simple question and answer assignment that they are used to.

Inquiry-based teaching's role is to introduce students to a higher level of questioning and thinking. This helps them achieve higher academic success, remember and process more information long-term, and better prepares them for higher learning in their careers and/or in university.

# data[].attributes.body
We strive to use inquiry-based teaching in order to better prepare our students for higher order thinking.

Inquiry-based teaching helps students achieve higher on exams, remember more information long-term, and leads to a higher success rate at university and career training.

# data[].attributes.body
I think one of the biggest challenges for many teachers is low expectations for their students. They do not believe their students are capable of inquiry-based instruction due to behavior, cognitive ability, or class size. Students are capable of inquiry-based learning, as well as many other forms of higher-order and "complicated" teaching methods!

# data[].attributes.body
I think getting students to think and be engaged in this type of learning will be the biggest challenge. Many of them basic strategies because they don't have to think too hard.

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiry based learning will make them life long learners! They will learn to be curious and ask questions their whole life.

# data[].attributes.body
We want students to take control of their own learning. They need to know how to find answers to all of life's questions on their own rather than just having someone spoon feed them.

# data[].attributes.body
The role of inquiry based teaching is to teach kids how to think! They get used to being spoon fed information and don't take control over their own learning. They need to know how to think for themselves and ask questions to be able to function in the world.

The role of inquiry is to aide students in reading at a deeper level. Students are able to make connections, find deeper means to the author's choices, and reflect upon what was reading on a more figurative meaning.

# data[].attributes.body
In my ELA class inquiry based learning was used to make inferences and determine author's purpose. I encouraged students to make connections to the text to obtain a deeper meaning of the text. Then converse with classmates and collaborate to determine similarities and differences in opinions.

# data[].attributes.body
Students who are successful with inquiry tend to be more engaged in lessons. This students also tend to be more successful academically because they do not view assignment as a means to a grade but rather and exploration into knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
The challenge is getting kids out of the mindset of reading just to find answers to questions for an assessment or assignment.

# data[].attributes.body
The role of inquiry based teaching is to encourage students to ask questions to deepen their learning. As well as practice asking higher level questions.

# data[].attributes.body
We use inquiry based teaching because if students are only ever asked to remember they won't really connect with the text or whatever content they are learning. Inquiry based teaching encourages students to ask questions and investigate, as well as have new ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiry based teaching will help students to learn their whole lives. Teaching them how to ask higher level questions will encourage them to continue to ask questions.

# data[].attributes.body
One challenge that I see may come with using Inquiry Based Instruction is student engagement. Students, I've found, are much more inclined to just say "I don't know" than to try to engage and work to find the right answer or question to ask.

# data[].attributes.body
The role of inquiry-based teaching is to have students develop questions based on their knowledge and understanding from what the teacher has presented. Students then can collaborate with others and come up with deeper-level thinking answers to gain a more complex knowledge of the material.

# data[].attributes.body
We use inquiry-based teaching to take the focus away from the teacher and put it on to the students so that their learning experience is focused on them building up their own knowledge rather than being able to just simply recall and spit back basic information.

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiry-based teaching contributes to student success in the classroom and beyond because it allows students to get to that deeper level of thinking and opens up their minds to use the same ways of thinking in other aspects of their lives.

# data[].attributes.body
Some challenges that may accompany inquiry-based thinking may include students not being as engaged if they don't find the content interesting, coming up with no answers or basic answers, and disagreements occurring between students.

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiry based instruction is a teaching environment where a problem is proposed and the students decide how the question is researched and answered instead of the teacher providing the answer through lectures

# data[].attributes.body
It is used because it makes students more aware of the subject because they are trying to find the answers themselves

# data[].attributes.body
It forces students to do their own research and therefore encourage them to become critical thinkers

# data[].attributes.body
The biggest challenge is to transition from classical teaching to one of facilitator and guide. It requires the teacher to become a teacher of accurate research instead of a dispenser of information
