Inquiry-based Instruction

In inquiry-based instruction, teachers facilitate student learning by creating opportunities for students to engage in authentic, real-world problems and challenges. Teachers encourage students to ask their own questions and guide them in developing the skills and strategies needed to find answers to those questions.

Encouraging students to ask questions and investigate their own ideas and helps to improve their problem-solving skills as well as gain a deeper understanding of academic concepts. Both of which are important life skills.
