Taking any question and running with it. Explore it. Let the students ask any and all questions.

Not knowing yet curious enough to put forth effort & perseverance in asking questions & seeking understanding...

I do not have all the answers nor expect any of my students too... I do expect my students (myself included) to feel comfortable in not knowing and develop the skills and the know how to seek to understand.

Inquiry....

To dig deeper. A recursive, often meandering, intellectual process that proceeds via questions and research. Rarely does genuine inquiry occur in schools. In fact, inquiry can often be seen as challenging traditional notions of what school is supposed to be like, as well as the roles of teachers and students.

Inquiry is the discovery of the unknown "What" and "Who", and the uncovering of the not understood "How" and "Why".

Inquiry is wondering why and taking that wondering to the next level by investigating, questioning, going off on tangents, and learning until all your questions are answered to your satisfaction and your curiosity is satiated for a while.

In the classroom it may look like chaos but inquiry is a little chaotic until students know what they are looking for and can start finding what they need to know to answer their questions.

Presenting a challenge or a problem.

Leading with a question or learning intention and keep coming back to this original idea.

Building upon student solutions.

Students solving and answering each others problems and questions.

Teacher acting as an activator to boost ideas and connect student voices.

Students realising that growth has been achieved.

Reflection by students throughout and at end to pin-point their learning timeline.

This are some of my exit questions

I agree with Joy Kirr. Inquiry is when the students are in charge of their learning. Inquiry is what fuels our Genius Hour. The students are open to several forms of inquiry such as: Face to face, online, textbooks, etc. I have discovered that my students use different ways to find what they are looking for to approach and solve a problem. I also want to share that a failed project pushes them to higher levels of inquiry also.

I envision inquiry in the classroom to look like the STUDENTS' room. They decide what they need to know at any point in the day, and feel free to ask it of the class w/o repercussions. In this environment, the teacher is not the expert - students know where or WHO to go to find resources. Inquiry drives learning.

Inquiry is encouraging students to ask questions which will lead them to learning. As a teacher, my goal is to help my students learn to ask good questions which will help them to acquire useful knowledge they can use. In other words, allowing them to gather the building blocks they can then create and innovate with.

Curious students = opportunities for inquiry! When students are in the driver's seat of their research, using authentic sources, connecting and collaborating with experts, and presenting for real purposes - that's inquiry!

Inquiry is an important part of what I do on a daily basis in regards to our makerspace. There is a direct connection between inquiry and open-ended exploration. One is not possible without the other. In regards to makerspaces, it is important to foster inquiry that we don't tell students what they should make, but rather set up the learning environment and supply the materials and resources for them to experience it on their own.
