4. Stripling’s Inquiry Model (SLM, 4/07 and 9/09) Connect (awaken prior knowledge) Wonder (generate possible questions) Investigate (seek and discover info) Construct (discover patterns; draw conclusions) Express (create product) Reflect (consider effectiveness of process/product)

11. What Are We Broadcasting? Does my facility layout promote inquiry? Does my tech policy promote social learning (shared folders, etc.)? Do I talk more about citation than instruction? Do I do professional reading beyond LibraryLand? Can I articulate non-”bird unit” approaches?

12. If All Else Fails … “Do you really want to grade these? … Me either! I wonder what would happen if we tried a different approach.”

13. Sample Scenario: Pets Consider a pet you would like to own. Fill in the graphic organizer, then put that information on a poster for National Pet Week!!!!!!!!! Diet Things to buy Foods to avoid Exercise Life span
