View Organizers What is Inquiry Based Learning? Inquiry based learning is mainly involving the learner and leading him to understand. Inquiry here implies on the possessing skills and attitude of yours, which allows you to ask questions about new resolutions and issues while you are gaining new information. Dictionary meaning of Inquiry is seeking knowledge , information, or truth through questioning. All the people carry on with this process throughout their life, even if you might find it not very much reflecting. For example, infants use inquiry to build their sense of the world, the babies turn towards voices, put things in their mouths, grasp things, and observe faces that come near. The inquiry process is mainly the gathering of data and information and applying them to senses like smelling, tasting, touching, hearing and seeing. Very sadly, our traditional ways of teaching discourage the process of inquiry. It makes the student get less prone to asking questions as they move through their grade levels, they are just expected to listen and repeat the expected answers. This is due to the lack of understanding of inquiry based learning. Inquiry based learning is not just asking questions, but it is a way of converting data and information into useful knowledge. A useful application of inquiry based learning involves many different factors, which are, a different level of questions, a focus for questions, a framework for questions, and a context for questions. Much mesmerizing information and facts are readily available, which needs an understanding of how to make sense out of it and turn it into useful knowledge. The teachers must be able to analyze that he or she does into only have to accumulate information and data but also have to generate it into useful knowledge, which can be easily done through inquiry based learning. Our country's success depending upon natural resources is the past; the future of our country's success now depends upon the workforce which works smarter.

    Great article. 5th and 6th grade seems so young to even be able to grasp all of this! It is great to start them out young while they are just really starting to use the web for school. That way when they start doing more complicated projects when they are older they will know how to do it right.

"Uncertainty About 'Fair Use' Is Hurting Academic and Research Libraries" - 3 views

  •  
    While this article focuses on how librarians feel about and deal with the complexities of copyright and fair use rules, I find it relevant and valuable for classroom teachers too. Fear of plagiarism and copyright infringement in our classrooms is real, and can restrain us from implementing resources just as much as it can librarians.

NCSALL: Differentiated Instruction - 2 views

  •  
    This is an article written by Mary Ann Corley about differentiated instruction and the techniques used to implement it. This article also discussed the challenges that educators face when using differentiated instruction.
  •  
    I enjoyed this article a great deal. I think that it is important for educators to learn more about differentiated instruction. I like how the article said that "teachers need to plan their lessons to adjust to the learners". This is becoming even more true with today's students. The tips list provided has some very good suggestions. One tip that jumped out to me was having student portfolios. This relates to one of my research topics, interactive notebooks.

    A Teaching blogger's dream is about to begin. Someone once said that until something is shared it is just and idea that no one cares about. Blogging in Education is really getting popular now. Many teachers now have their own blog. Hussey, T. (2010). Create your own blog. Indianapolis, Indiana: Pearson Education.

    Helpful for anyone who wants to create an educator's blog. I am thinking of using it this semester.
  •  
    It is important with the blog to follow fair use and the following article shows how to do that: http://www.ehow.com/list_7397165_fair-use-copyright-laws-teachers.html It would seem that fair use is including information with apa citations, not too much information and credit. But the jury is still out on this.
