  1. Support Inquiry Learning using Web 2.0 Tools, and critical thinking By Liz Deskins, teacher-librarian Hilliard Bradley High School

  2. Inquiry definition: as “a stance in which the learner is engaged in asking questions and finding answers, not simply accumulating facts presented by someone else that have no relation to previous learning or new understanding.” Kuhlthau, Carol C., Leslie Maniotes, Ann K. Caspari. Guided Inquiry: Learning in the 21st Century. Libraries Unlimited, 2007.

  3. AASL Lesson Plan template and database http://aasl.jesandco.org/ and Common Core Crosswalks http://www.ala.org/aasl/guidelinesandstandards/commoncorecrosswalk *Great online tools for planning and collaborating!

  5. This phase involves building background knowledge and providing a context/foundation upon which to build further learning. • Possible Web 2.0 resources include: • INFOhio Electronic Resources, including: • World Book Web • Biography Reference Book CONNECT

  6. In this phase we begin developing questions and making predictions. There is questioning, interpreting, and comparing. • Possible Web 2.0 tools include: • Google Docs • Stixy • VoiceThread WONDER

  7. During this phase students find AND evaluate information. Some activities include: retrieving, locating, and classifying. • Web 2.0 tools include: • LiveBinder • Evernote • Google Docs INVESTIGATE

  8. During this phase, student create new understandings. They analyze, compare, and outline. • Web 2.0 tools: • Google Docs • Wikis • Mindmeister • Museum Box CONSTRUCT

  9. This is the demonstration of that new understanding phase. Students show by one means or another that they can apply this learning by sharing new information or new ideas. • Web 2.0 tools: • VoiceThread • Animoto, • Prezi • Glogster EXPRESS

  10. What did I learn? What do I still need to learn? Now I have this question. Often begins the inquiry cycle again. • Web 2.0 tools: • Wiki • Edmodo • Voicethread REFLECT

  11. These can be used for self-assessment, peer-assessment, even teacher assessed. Web 2.0 tools: VoiceThread Exit slips Survey ASSESSMENT TOOLS

  12. Inquiry is a natural part of learning, and so should be a factor in our teaching. Using critical thinking and Web 2.0 tools help to create an engaging final project. One that was designed by critically thinking students who are driven by their questions to pursue the answer; which, in turn, lead to more questions. SUMMARY
