This research-based book dissects and explores the meaning and
nature of Inquiry in teaching and learning in schools, challenging
existing concepts and practices. In particular, it explores and
contests prevailing attitudes about the practice of inquiry-based
learning across the Science, Geography and History disciplines, as
well as focusing on the importance of the role of teacher in what
is frequently criticised as being a student-controlled activity.
Three frameworks, which are argued to be necessarily intertwined
for discipline-specific literacy, guide this inquiry work: the
classroom goals; the instructional approach; and the degree of
teacher direction. The foundation of the analysis is the notion of
educational inquiry as it is structured in the Australian
Curriculum, along with the locating of the study in international
trends in inquiry learning over time. It will be of great interest
to researchers, higher degree students and practicing professionals
working in Education and Sociology.
