    • Summary:"A book that offers fifty inquiry experiences so that teachers can teach in an inquiry-based way"-- Provided by publisher.
      Plenty of resources speak to the benefits of inquiry, the research behind it, and even subject-specific processes to follow. But that's not enough. Implementing inquiry is the tricky part, and involves changing beliefs about the teacher and student roles in the classroom. The strategies and experiences in this book improve your relationships with students and colleagues, reduce your workload by asking more of students, and breathe joyful curiosity back into your classroom. One part practical guide, one part interactive journal, this book provides the opportunity to do inquiry as you read about it. You'll learn what inquiry-based instruction looks like in practice through five key strategies, all of which can be immediately implemented in any learning environment. -- ‡c From publisher's description.
