There is currently a rapidly growing interest in inquiry learning
and an emerging consensus among researchers that, particularly when
supported by technology, it can be a significant vehicle for
developing higher order thinking skills. Inquiry learning methods
also offer learners meaningful and productive approaches to the
development of their knowledge of the world, yet such methods can
present significant challenges for teachers and students.
Orchestrating Inquiry Learning addresses the key challenge of how
to resource and support processes of inquiry learning within and
beyond the classroom. It argues that technological support, when
coupled with appropriate design of activities and management of the
learning environment, can enable inquiry learning experiences that
are engaging, authentic and personally relevant.This edited
collection of carefully integrated chapters brings together, for
the first time; work on inquiry learning and orchestration of
learning. Drawing upon a broad range of theoretical perspectives,
this book examines: Orchestration of inquiry learning and
instruction Trajectories of inquiry learning Designing for inquiry
learning Scripting personal inquiry Collaborative and collective
inquiry learning Assessment of inquiry learning Inquiry learning in
formal and semi-formal educational contexts Orchestrating Inquiry
Learning is essential reading for all those concerned with
understanding and promoting effective inquiry learning. The book is
aimed at an international audience of researchers, post-graduate
students, and advanced undergraduates in education, educational
technology and psychology. It will also be of interest to
educational practitioners and policy makers, including teachers,
educational advisors, teacher-students and their trainers.
