Building on inquiry-learning theory and research, this text
explores how inquiry process models and questioning protocols can
be used and modified to develop curious and reflective lifelong
learners and problem solvers while simultaneously fostering a
school-wide inquiry culture. Part of the Shared Foundations series,
this book examines effective implementation of the Shared
Foundation Inquire from the National School Library Standards. By
studying Inquire through the Domains, readers will see how the
Competencies and Alignments support and demonstrate learner growth
in the inquiry process and can reflect on their practices in a
variety of K-12 settings. Loaded with ideas and strategies to grow
critical, systematic thinkers who design solutions to authentic
problems, this book features theoretical discussion of the research
framing Inquire and strategies for cultivating inquiry cultures
that extend beyond the school library; application of common
process models and questioning techniques aligned with the Inquire
Domains, showing learner growth in the inquiry process through
personalized inquiry paths; no-tech, low-tech, and high-tech tools
and examples for supporting inquiry learning in school library
settings with various levels of support; lesson plans contributed
by K-12 school librarians demonstrating integration of the Inquire
Competencies with core content areas; and figures and tables to
illustrate more complex ideas in both theory and practice. This
deep dive into Inquire supports school librarians working with
other educators to design inquiry-based learning experiences that
improve learner outcomes, personalize inquiry paths, and engage
learners with core content. Examination copies are available for
instructors who are interested in adopting this title for course
use.
