Personal Inquiry Guides

​I was excited to see that the IB creted a guide about personal inquiry.  It was originally designed to support personal inquiry learning during the pandemic, but it can easily be applied to in-person teaching.  

As I reviewed the document, I was happy to see the structure of supporting a personal inquiry through the entire process, question prompts, transdisciplinary theme/ lines of inquiry/ concept connections, reflection tools, and success criteria.  I can't wait to re-read through this guide to help me with my own personal inquiry. 

To get a copy of the guide, you can scan the QR code or click on the document picture above. 

As I was reading through the guide, it reminded me of the Kath Murdoch's book, Getting Personal with Inquiry Learning.  There are relatable tidbits in this gem of a book to spark learner curiousity about their own inquiries.  Oftentimes, this is the hardest part of the process.  

I have thoroughly read this book and podcasted it over last summer. Kath gave permission to do so and it was a wonderful journey to be sure.
