This course explores the creation of classrooms in which students and teachers are actively engaged in making meaning through personal and collaborative inquiry. Issues will include integrating across traditional curricular areas, themes, projects, student-centered learning, and connections between the classroom and the social and natural worlds beyond the school. One major issue is a new role for teachers as inquirers about their own and student's learning. The course will also examine challenges to inquiry-based instruction, including those related to management, assessment, basic skills, cultural differences and assumptions, and the responses of parents, principals, and other teachers.
