If an inquiry-based system is to succeed, we’ll need really good human beings in the classroom who know their field, but who also radiate the kind of positive, non-judgmental love that helps students open their minds and hearts. Via Gust MEES

A handy flow chart on the inquiry process. |
I absolutely agree with this premise: students need to feel the classroom is a safe place to take risks and even make mistakes, all in the interest of learning. That sense of security comes from agreeing build a positive learning environment, which is a loving place to be. Students, as well as teachers, have a lot of power to make or break such an agreement, so modeling this behavior and teaching students how to build mutual trust and respect is worth a small loss in academic instruction time at the beginning of the course.
Interesting!
It's important to know if you have what it takes and to know what you might need to work on to become a better inquiry based teacher. A MUST read!!
