Inquiry based learning is used when the teacher wants his students
create their own learning. So, Inquiry Based Learning usually involves
students in their own learning. It is an useful tool in which students have
to ask questions and based on that they are going to find different ways in
which they can create their own learning in the classroom.
Inquiry based learning implies procedures in which students can reach
a final product in the learning process.
|
The role
of the students is basically that they need to create their own learning. In order
to do this, they must ask questions.
So, they
need to be engaged in the learning process so that they can create new knowledge
as they gather a lot of information. In that way, they can discuss and
reflect on the new knowledge in order to share it with the rest of the group
in the class.

For Inquiry
based learning the teacher just acts as the facilitator on the student´s
learning. He is not going to provide all the information that the students
want to know.
Although the
teacher does not provide the information, he is going to be part of the
learning process. He is going to move in the classroom in order to observe the
work of the students.
Moreover,
the teacher needs to plan the learning units in which students can focus on and
create a good understanding.
|
One of the
important characteristic of Inquiry based learning is that students engage in
the learning process.
This is a
big responsibility for the students because they have to be focused on what
they are going to do.
Another characteristic
is that Inquiry based learning develops curiosity on the students. In that
way, they explore new thing that they did not know. So, students can develop new
skills with the help of inquiry based learning.
Also,
students take the lead on their learning. They work through their abilities
and then they share the information with the world.
|
A benefit
is that the students can work individually and create their learning and
there is not necessity that the teacher provides all the information from a
book or something like that.
Also, the
students can choose the research method they want in order to construct their
own understanding and transmit it to others.
