Chapters International: Starting in May-Online Workshop/Inquiry in Action

OVERVIEW:
How do we implement inquiry? This three days, 10 hours practical workshop aims to offer you inquiry experiences so that you can teach in an inquiry-based way.

On 23 and 24 May, participants start to examine their inquiry journey, explore five strategies implementing inquiry in the classroom with practical examples from a wide range of settings and to explore strategies in each of the phases of inquiry. Participants will have 2-week time to consolidate their understanding, followed by 2 hours guidance in developing a unit plan with the model of inquiry cycle on 6 June. In the planning session, a range of options is available to participants – according to need and interest. The planning time for different options will be announced on 24 May.

The participants have time to practice as authentically as possible, to see the immediate application to their work, leave with a plan of action, and feel supported by a community of professionals.

This workshop is suitable for all K-12 educators.
