WHAT IS INQUIRY-BASED
LEARNING
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is a
pedagogy which best enables
students to experience the
processes of knowledge creation
and the key attributes are
learning stimulated by inquiry, a
student-centered approach, a
move to self-directed learning,
and an active approach to
learning.
WHAT IS INQUIRY-BASED
LEARNING
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
Inquiry-based learning is
an approach to teaching
and learning that places
students’ questions, ideas
and observations at the
centre of the learning
experience.

DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
“If we are only teaching what we
know, our children can only do as
bad as we are doing, and this is the
challenge we are facing – we have
to go beyond it.”

For 3 Minutes by group:
1. What is the
importance of Inquiry –
Based Learning in
teaching competencies?
IMPORTANCE OF INQUIRY – BASED LEARNING IN
TEACHING
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
• Develop useful problem solving skill
• Prepare learners to live in a world that
is non - static
• Enable learners to cope with changes
that will increase in complexity
throughout their lives
• Provides learners tools for continuing
to learn
• Attain important outcomes in the
classroom

LEVELS OF INQUIRY
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
Limited/Confirmation inquiry is useful
when a teacher’s goal is to reinforce a
previously introduced idea; to introduce
students to the experience of conducting
investigations; or to have students
practice a specific inquiry skill, such as
collecting and recording data.
LEVELS OF INQUIRY
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
Structured inquiry, the question
and procedure are still provided by
the teacher; however, students
generate an explanation supported
by the evidence they have
collected.
LEVELS OF INQUIRY
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
Guided inquiry, the teacher provides
students with only the research
question, and students design the
procedure (method) to test their
question and the resulting
explanations.
LEVELS OF INQUIRY
DEPAR TMENT OF EDUCATION
Highest level of inquiry, Open inquiry, students
have the purest opportunities to act like
scientists, deriving questions, designing and
carrying out investigations, and communicating
their results. This level requires the most
scientific reasoning and greatest cognitive
demand from students.

Editor's Notes

  • #2: For Analysis, ask the participants the following:
  • #3: Say: Our goal as educators is to help students make this leap – from intuitive understandings and natural curiosity to knowledge creation – to a space where ideas can be transformed into formalized understanding and further questioning.
  • #4: Say: “IBL also requires more than simply answering questions or getting a right answer. It espouses investigation, exploration, search, quest, research, pursuit, and study. For students, the process often involves open-ended investigations into a question or a problem, requiring them to engage in evidence-based reasoning and creative problem-solving, as well as “problem finding.” For educators, the process is about being responsive to the students’ learning needs, and most importantly, knowing when and how to introduce students to ideas that will move them forward in their inquiry. Together, educators and students co-author the learning experience, accepting mutual responsibility for planning, assessment for learning and the advancement of individual as well as class-wide understanding of personally meaningful content and ideas (Fielding, 2012). Educators play an active role throughout the process by establishing a culture where ideas are respectfully challenged, tested, redefined and viewed as improvable, moving children from a position of wondering to a position of enacted understanding and further questioning (Scardamalia, 2002).
  • #6: Say: Jean William Fritz Piaget was born in Neuchâtel (Switzerland) on August 9, 1896. He died in Geneva on September 16, 1980.  Piaget's theory of Constructivism is a theory on learning, which suggests that people acquire knowledge by experiencing things and in conjunction with knowledge that they already possess, "construct" their own understanding of these things. Constructivism addresses how learning actually occurs, not focusing on what influences learning. The role of teachers is very important. Instead of giving a lecture the teachers in this theory function as facilitators whose role is to aid the student when it comes to their own understanding.  John Rich Dewey was born October 20, 1859, in Burlington, Vermont, USA Died June 1, 1952, New York,  “Experiential [learning] is a philosophy and methodology in which educators purposefully engage with students in direct experience and focused reflection in order to increase knowledge, develop skills, and clarify values” (Association for Experiential Education, para. 2). There is an intimate and necessary relation between the process of actual experience and education. ~ John Dewey, 1938 Lev Vygotsky was born into an art- and literature-loving family in what is now Orsche, Belarus on November 17, 1896 (November 5 in the Old Style), Died: 11 June 1934, Moscow, Russia Vygotsky theorized that children develop their behaviors and habits from their cultures and through interpersonal experiences; he referred to this phenomena as cultural meditation.  Vygotsky's zone of proximal development (ZPD) remains a popular theory within the field of developmental psychology to illustrate a child’s learning process. The zone refers to the span of time it takes a child to proceed from the early stages of learning a new task to the point at which the child can complete the new task independently. 
  • #7: Say: RA 10533 AN ACT ENHANCING THE PHILIPPINE BASIC EDUCATION SYSTEM BY STRENGTHENING ITS CURRICULUM AND INCREASING THE NUMBER OF YEARS FOR BASIC EDUCATION, APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES “Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013”. Approved: MAY 15 2013 This Act which is a consolidation of Senate Bill No. 3286 and House Bill No. 6643 was finally passed by the Senate and the House of Representatives on January 30, 2013. IRR September 4, 2013
  • #9: Abstraction: Importance of Inquiry Based learning Do: Let them write their answers in metacards and post in their designated areas. One answer per group Study the participants’ responses and analyze them thematically.
  • #12: DO” Present the ppt for the discussion on the four levels of inquiry. Let the groups identify the level of inquiry they did in the activity on Möbius strip. Write your answer on the metacards. Let them justify their answers.
  • #13: DO” Present the ppt for the discussion on the four levels of inquiry. Let the groups identify the level of inquiry they did in the activity on Möbius strip. Let them justify their answers.
  • #18: It is not necessary for the teacher to follow the sequence of the level of inquiry it depends on the goal of the teacher. The teachers should also know when and how to use the level of inquiry especially when he/she is introducing new ideas.
  • #19: DO” Present the ppt for the discussion on the 5E learning model of inquiry.
  • #22: captures students’ attention gets students thinking about the subject matter raises questions in students’ minds Stimulates thinking, and access prior knowledge.
  • #23: provides an opportunity for students to observe, record data, isolate variables, design and plan experiments, create graphs, interpret results, develop hypotheses, and organize their findings. Teachers may frame questions, suggest approaches, provide feedback, and assess understandings.
  • #24: Students are introduced to models, laws, and theories during the explain phase of the learning cycle. Students summarize results in terms of these new theories and models. The teacher guides students toward coherent and consistent generalizations, helps students with dis- tinct scientific vocabulary, and provides questions that help students use this vocabulary to explain the results of their explorations.
  • #25: Transfer of learning Transfer one concept to another Transfer subject to subject Application to a new context
  • #26: Formative Summative Informal Formal Provides an opportunity for learners to assess their own understanding and be able to demonstrate the depth and breadth of that understanding to others, including the teacher. Also, may allow the teacher to assess student performance and/or understandings of concepts, skills, processes, and applications
  • #29: ELICIT Elicits prior understandings Extracts or draws attention to prior understandings and knowledge Assists in transferring knowledge Framing a “what do you think” question EXTEND Refers to activities that build on, extend and refine, and/or require the application and use of the scientific concepts and vocabulary in new situations. Activity is designed to increase the depth and breadth of student understanding.
