Inquiry in the 21st-Century Classroom
Over seven weeks, new and experienced Ford PAS educators explore in an online setting how an inquiry based approach impacts student learning, and discuss some of the challenges and opportunities that arise in practice. The interactive course involves readings, chats, discussion boards, video analysis, assignments, and hands-on experiences with Ford PAS activities. Participants have the opportunity to adapt and implement part of an activity, to address the challenges and benefits of teaching and learning with inquiry, and to share ideas for implementing Ford PAS.
