Amazing example of an inquiry based project "How does the Renaissance provide ideas for improving Calgary today?"

The 21st Century Learners Project is sponsored by the Alabama Best Practices Center in Montgomery, Alabama. This project consists of teams of teachers from across the state who spend time learning about Web 2.0 tools and how to incorporate these tools into the curriculum. Teachers are also exposed to how these tools build learning skills in students. Teachers also focus on how to use student-centered, inquiry-driven approaches in instruction. This wiki is designed to be a resource for teachers who want to learn more about Web 2.0 tools, project based learning, and constructivist teaching. For some this will be an introduction and for others a refresher, but our hope is that you will start to see how technology can transform your teaching and engage your students.
