What is Inquiry?
Inquiry is a way of teaching (a "pedagogy") that gets students to do most of the question-asking and answer-seeking. The role of the teacher is to design and guide experiences (and an environment) that encourage student discussion, collaboration, and critical thinking.
Inquiry teaching is an ancient teaching practice, however its practice is still rare in today's K-12 classrooms. There are many reasons for this, but times are changing. More and more teachers are realizing that inquiry is a more effective, evidence-based way to build 21st C learning skills. Inquiry also puts the cognitive demand and learning responsibility on students, where it belongs. Most importantly, inquiry builds strong emotional bonds and breathes joyful curiosity into classrooms.
What We Believe
We believe that great inquiry-based teaching is an art form that has the power to inspire change (and that anyone can learn to do it).
We've spent decades working side-by-side with school leaders, teachers, corporate trainers and non-profit instructors on establishing inquiry-based mindsets, approaches and tools that inspire change, achieve results, and engage students of all ages at high levels.
We share inquiry-based instructional strategies by modeling them ourselves. We boil down the latest neuroscience and brain research to their most essential elements. We demonstrate for teachers what these elements look like in real classrooms and training sessions. We co-create and demonstrate lessons, create lab classrooms, coach in real-time, offer ready-to-implement inquiry-based design strategies, and provide videos, tools and templates.
