Inquiry Learning in the Gifted Classroom takes readers step-by-step through the process of integrating, managing, and assessing problem-based learning (PrBL).
PrBL challenges students to think about problems in a logical manner, providing a structure for problem solving that can be used in any situation. Chapters begin with learning objectives and conclude with an activity designed to help readers master PrBL. Detailed, timely examples serve as guides that teachers can look to as they outline their own curriculum as well as helpful graphic organizers to aid in student assessment.
Built to foster lifelong learners, this book helps students experience firsthand how and what they learn in the classroom manifests and becomes relevant in their own lives. After all, it’s a problem-based world out there.
