Inquiry Criteria
|
Inquiry
continuum specific statement from the column/row
|
Why
do you believe this fits that column/row (your argument)
|
How
would you improve this part of the lesson to make it more inquiry based?
|
Engage
|
Learner engages in question
provided by teacher, materials, or other source
|
We were told when
to stir, when to measure, and how long to measure.
|
To make this more
inquiry based I would suggest not presenting the students with every step to
the experiment. They could test
different ways to cool the water.
|
Evidence
|
Learner given data and told how
to analyze
|
We were told what
data we would be collecting and how to collect it.
|
I would let
students design their own experiment and decide for themselves what data is
best to collect.
|
Explain
|
Learner given possible ways to
use evidence to formulate explanation
|
We used our own
evidence that clearly pointed to the answer.
|
Let the students
decide how to use their evidence and how to analyze.

Inquiry continuum
Our whole lab was completely teacher centered. It told us exactly how much water to pour into each cup, how long to stir, when to time to it, and how long to time it.
