Fostering Inquiry in Nonlaboratory Settings: Creating Student-Centered Activities
Ingram, Ella; Lehman, Elizabeth; Love, Alan C.; Polacek, Kelly Myer
Journal of College Science Teaching, v34 n1 p39-43 Sep 2004
Inquiry is an important learning strategy, even for students who cannot or do not perform actual experiments. We describe two activities, other than experimentation, that we used in introductory biology learning groups to emphasize inquiry abilities. We also provide recommendations for creating additional inquiry activities. (Contains 1 table and 2 figures.)
