Guided Inquiry community wiki Both Australian practitioner presentations will be on our GI Community wiki at: Sign up!

A close up: Guided Inquiry at Loreto Kirribilli Year 11 Ancient Historical Investigation, 2012 What did students learn? What did we learn? What did the data show? Changes 2013

Project 1: Year 11 Ancient History The Guided Inquiries take 5 weeks, 26 lessons. Look!

Communication via blogs Look!

What did they learn? Value of the GI experience Student voice - What did they learn?

What did we learn?

What did we learn? Culmination conversation: What went well? Agenda Agenda from The Bible! (aka Guided Inquiry Design) Agenda filled inAgenda filled in. See these in detail on the wiki. Five weeks inside the head of each individual student Reflection for synthesis of information and interventions Inquiry conversations one on one Feedback on blog Kuhlthau, C.C., Maniotes, L. K. and Caspari, A. K. (2012) Guided Inquiry Design: A Framework for Inquiry in Your School. Santa Barbara, California. Libraries Unlimited.

Action plans for some of our students Kate M Thermopylae Historical accuracy Footnote errors Teacher/TL Olivia A Julius Caesar murder Essay construction Engagement with deeper sources Teacher/TL Sam C Mayans Structure of essays, footnoting Developing a more manageable question Teacher/TL

Action plans for teaching team? Action plans for teaching team The team agrees on actionable items for the team. Next time, we will…. resist temptation to provide information, and teach more on how to locate it and how to read dense texts - All of us! Restrict the inquiry next year to five groups of topics, and use Inquiry circle techniques recommended by Kuhlthau et al - T and TL

EBP Action Plan What are we measuring for impact? What’s the research literature documenting evidence for impact :Bibliography - academic and practitionerBibliography Types of evidence required to demonstrate impact: Student/Program What did the data show? EBP Action Plan Template Adapted from Hay/Todd 2012 – EBP Action Plan and Program Templates – SybaSigns School Libraries Making a Difference Seminar – 21 May, Sydney Have a closer look at this later!

Differentiating conclusions C1 – Straightforward expression of conclusion, no justification or elaboration C2 – Conclusion contains 1 justification or elaboration C3 – Conclusion contains more than 1 justification or elaboration.

Facts, explanations, conclusions – whole group

Kate M: the perfect researcher Why has the Spartan failure at Thermopylae been immortalised?

Emily G: Unusually rich conclusions Assess the historicity of Herodotus’ account of the Battle of Salamis.

Ailish R – a diligent and thoughtful scholar Discuss the differing perspectives highlighted in the historical debate on the location of Atlantis.

Eloise C – such enthusiasm! Investigate the extent to which the Theseus and the Minotaur myth has a basis in historical truth.

Other data Examples of our data: Essay Marking A reflection sheet Olivia’s notes on Easybib Have a look at these later!

Reflection sheets Eloise – Smitten with Greek mythology Ailish – Best friends with the Information Search Process

Ring in the changes! Inquiry Communities Inquiry Circles: Idea development, inquiry question formation, charting of ideas, sharing notetaking Redesign of three GI’s Topics grouped into broad areas Experiment with teaching whole unit of work by inquiry, Year 7 Ancient Egypt A Nile Research River!Research River

A more student-friendly Information Search Process Kuhltau, C, Maniotes, L and Caspari A. Guided Inquiry Design: A Framework for Inquiry in Your School. Libraries Unlimited, 2012.

Class folders Our Big Question

Inquiry circles and what they have to do!

Explicit ISP and groupings of topics

Inquiry circle group tasks Question focus formulation Pair/share/pair Ideas cluster

Your individual tasks Reflection sheets Take notes on Evernote, do bibliography on Easybib. Develop an inquiry question Answer your inquiry question in an essay of up to 2000 words.

So far, so good….. Year 7 Inquiry Community on New Kingdom Ancient Egypt has a say – Video too large to include

Do Guided Inquiry skills transfer? Kate in Year 12 Video too large to include.

At least, not at Loreto Kirribilli!
