This workshop will model for classroom teachers, one way to plan, teach, resource and assess inquiry-based learning which encompasses the guiding principles of a newly gazetted curriculum. The vision of the New Zealand curriculum is to produce "...young people who will be confident, connected, actively involved lifelong learners" (p. 8). This is further supported by a strong focus on the importance of student attitudes and values, plus the five Key Competencies that need to be embedded into all learning and teaching in New Zealand schools.
