Is it possible to teach inquiry skills systematically and to engage learners in being inquirers across elementary, secondary, and post-secondary schooling? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTo answer these urgent questions, this book\u003cbr\u003e*pulls together more than four decades of expert opinion, quantitative research, and qualitative research on inquiry in different disciplines, school subjects, and levels of education; and \u003cbr\u003e*presents a dozen different pedagogical, philosophical, and disciplinary traditions within which evidence and rationale are found for building learning and teaching experiences around inquiry-based curricula. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eInquiry in Education, Volume I: The Conceptual Foundations for Research as a Curricular Imperative\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book to gather all these sources together, to build a cross-disciplinary case for inquiry as the central core of sound curriculum design, and to offer an organized interpretation of this large body of knowledge from a variety of perspectives and for different educational purposes.
