Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is a learner-centered and active
learning environment where deep learning is cultivated by a process
of inquiry owned by the learner. IBL has its roots in a
constructivist educational philosophy and it is oriented around at
least three components: 1) exploration and discovery (e.g.
problem-based learning, open meaning-making), 2) authentic
investigations using contextualized learning (e.g. field studies,
case studies), and 3) research-based approach (e.g. research-based
learning, project-based learning). IBL encourages more
self-regulated learning because the primary responsibility is on
the learners to determine the issues and research questions and the
resources they need to address the questions. In this way, learning
occurs across all learning domains (affective, cognitive, and
social) because different types of knowledge are acquired though
experience with complex, real-life problems. This volume serves as
a conceptual and practical resource and guide for educators and
offers practical examples of IBL in action and diverse strategies
for how to implement IBL in different contexts.
