Making Authentic Inquiry Work: 
A Spring Institute for Educators

Learning for a Sustainable Future and Natural Curiosity are again partnering to facilitate this very popular 2 -day PD experience. This event is in partnership with the Greater Essex County District School Board with support from the TD Friends of the Environment Foundation. 

Throughout the two days, we will walk the talk and model inquiry methodology.

Who should attend?
  • Elementary teachers of all grades who wish to explore how authentic inquiry is being applied accross the curriculum
  • School administrators and system leaders who wish to support transformative inquiry-based learning for engaged citizenship.
Outcomes—through their participation, educators will:
  • Receive copies of Natural Curiosity (www.naturalcuriosity.ca/) and Connecting the Dots (www.lsf-lst.ca/dots) and gain perspectives on applying inquiry.
  • Identify and begin to address their individual questions, issues and challenges relevant to applying inquiry in their professional practice
  • Experience professional inquiry methods that can in turn be applied with students
  • Investigate collaborative knowledge building principles and methods
  • Gain confidence in planning authentic inquiry learning experiences and applying appropriate assessment methodology
  •  Explore how inquiry and other strategies maximize student engagement.

Cost: $295 CAD (HST, breakfast, lunch, refreshments, and 2 publications included)
