Inquiry-Based Learning
Available as a Workshop and/or Consulting by Joyce Butler, Ed.D.
Participants will explore the current thinking by researchers and practitioners on the value of providing an environment for students to learn through inquiry. The workshop will also re-visit the concepts from the ’80’s on learning styles, and will provide participants with the opportunity to experience several inquiry based learning opportunities. Samples of a structure for organizing a lesson around inquiry-based learning, as well as specific learning tools for a grade 3 fractions unit will be offered as examples for framing the learning around exploration and experiential opportunities.
