Inquiry Learning

I have found the fact that the inquiry learning models apply to such a wide age range, children to adults, to be a point of interest. Everyone needs to search for information for a variety of purposes, and it certainly helps to follow a clearly delineated process.

The idea of core and extended teams assisting students with the guided inquiry process is excellent. However, for this to occur even occasionally in a practical context to the extent suggested by Kuhlthau and Maniotes (2010, p. 19), particularly in under-staffed and under-resourced schools, presents some real issues.
