Inquiry Based Learning
Pedagogical Strategies
Chalk and Talk:
•Traditional science education
•Focus on ‘what we know’ (facts)
•Direct transfer of knowledge from
teacher to student
•Teacher’s role = dispense knowledge
•Student’s role = receive knowledge

Inquiry Based Learning
Pedagogical Strategies
Inquiry-Based Learning:
•The scientific process
•Focus on ‘how we know what we
know’ (evidence)
•Indirect transfer of knowledge
•Teacher’s role = facilitator of
learning
•Student’s role = active,
independent learner (investigator)
“Inquiry is something that
students do, not something that
is done to them.”

Advantages Disadvantages• Flexible and adaptable for a
variety of projects.
• Helps to build self-esteem throughallowing them to be more active intheir own learning process, rather
than passive via traditional lecturebased methods.
• Reinforces and builds severalskills of students in the areas ofphysical, emotional, and cognitive.
• It can work with any age group.
• Doesn´t work for all science topics.
• Requires more planning,preparation, and responsivenessfrom the educators.
• Educators must be skilled inhelping students learn the art ofasking a good question.
• Requires more class time
• May be less able to meet goals ofstandardized testing
Inquiry Based Learning
“Kids are naturally very inquisitive.
Teachers often train them out of it. I
think our first learning is inquiry
based.” (Anonymous, 2007)
“There are many good teacherswho have no handle on how toteach using inquiry-based lessons” (Anonymous, 2007)

Why do inquiry?
Research Findings:
• Understanding science is more than knowingfacts.
• Students build knowledge on what theyalready know (preconceptions)
• Students formulated new knowledge bymodifying and refining their current concepts(misconceptions)

Research Findings cont’d:
• Learning is mediated by a social environmentin which learners interact with others.
• Effective learning requires that students takecontrol of their own learning.
• The ability to apply knowledge to newsituations (transfer of learning) is affected bythe degree to which students learn withunderstanding.
