shows teachers how to create an inquiry classroom that allows individual or groups of students to actively pursue ideas using sound research skills. Maureen McQuerry provides an overview of the semester in 40 mini-lessons and presents guidelines for moving students from the brainstorming stage through thesis development and research to the product and presentation stage. Dozens of reproducible handouts allow teachers to implement an inquiry classroom (or inject inquiry learning into their current classroom curriculum) quickly and easily, and valuable tips help teachers find mentors, keep students to deadlines, oversee multiple student projects at once, find or establish a telecollaborative project with students from across the country or around the world, and much more. Teachers will be amazed at what their students can accomplish if allowed to explore their interests and pursue their passions!
