> Have you been wondering how to increase the rigor within an inquiry approach?  Inquiry learning is the premier way to accomplish the CCSS.  But inquiry can seem like a very loose and open way to teach and learn.  How do you ensure that your students achieve the rigor necessary to attain college and career readiness through an inquiry approach?  The Guided Inquiry Design program holds the key to rigor in inquiry.  In our community’s next webinar, Leslie Kuhlthau Maniotes will explore how to attain the highest level of rigor and research using Guided Inquiry Design. We will investigate how inquiry can be carefully and purposely guided to accomplish rigor. The definition we will use is rigor as creating an environment in which each student is expected to learn at high levels, each student is supported so that he or she can learn at high levels, and each student demonstrates learning at high levels (Blackburn, 2008).  We will look at each component of rigor and show how Guided Inquiry Design addresses each area; expectation, supports for learning and demonstration of learning.  Join Leslie on February 25 to learn how with careful planned use of Guided Inquiry Design you can increase student rigor and engagement.
