Inquiry Initiative

Education research and service projects related to broadband adoption and utilization, research related to human systems and broadband adoption and utilization.

About

The Inquiry Initiative is professional development for educators from an inquiry stance.  We focus on collaborative inquiry as a learner-centered pedagogy with promise for development of critical global literacies. Teachers will learn how to design highly engaging instruction using culturally sustaining practices to meet the needs of all learners in our global world.  Teachers will experience inquiry as a learner and have a chance to collaboratively design inquiry-based learning experience for their students.

Teachers will also be able to inquire into their own practice to meet their own goals through practitioner inquiry and dialogue. Working together we can encourage and support each other to make a difference for our students.
