Inquiry is the fundamental first step in the learning process, and oftentimes the least understood. This finely edited volume enables educators to visualize inquiry as the unifying knowledge base to guide students through all major subject areas. Its a must-have guide for exploring ways to integrate concepts across different content areas.
"There is a series of concrete guidelines and suggestions for facilitating implementation of inquiry-based instruction that teachers will find very useful. . this is a worthwhile collection of essays that could easily serve as a stimulating and beneficial book for a reading group or staff development resource." -- NSTA Recommends, October 2005
"As the book makes apparent, any good inquiry starts out with a good question. As it turns out, these questions are good starting points for inquiries by educators into inquiry, and this volume is an excellent companion to beginning such a quest." -- PsycCRITIQUES, January 2006
