Infusing Your Curriculum with Inquiry (3PDH's included)

In this course we will focus on how you can bring inquiry, making, and constructivist learning into every subject matter that you teach. We will cover the pedagogical imperative to shifting into this approach, specific activities you can do, ways to assess student learning, and ways to keep your excitement about this work alive well after the course is over.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand the importance of constructivist learning in the classroom.
  • Analyze ways to increase cooperation in your classroom, school, and community.
  • Evaluate the role of making in your own curriculum.
  • Engage in collaborative work to encourage cross-curricular implementation.
  • Reflect on ways to implement a mindset shift in your teaching.

 

What You'll Get

  • Immediately applicable lessons and activities
  • Guided completion of an inquiry-based facilitation plan to implement in the classroom
  • Become part of a network of teachers working to implement this learning in their classrooms
  • After completing the interactions throughout the course to demonstrate your learning outcomes, three (3) ISBE state-approved professional development hours (PDH's) will be provided by IDEA.

What People Are Saying:

I really enjoyed this course! It was very informative and supports my philosophy of what education should be. I want to thank you also for the thought-provoking exercises.....WOW! Organizing my thoughts and putting my plan on paper really helped me visualize how I was going to utilize this in my classroom. I cannot wait to put my plan into action and share it with my colleagues:)

I really enjoyed the courses that I participated in. I thought the PD was really good, and I came away with a lot of ideas on how to implement more DT/Making into my classroom.
