About the Project
|
Teacher-librarians Constructing Understanding through Inquiry, also called the Inquiry Project, is a strategic partnership between the Saskatchewan School Library Association (SSLA), a special subject council of the Saskatchewan Teachers Federation, and the Ministry of Education. Together, the SSLA and the Ministry of Education have worked to identify and support Saskatchewan educators’ understanding and use of inquiry for teaching and learning. Over the two years of the project, many educators shared their experiences, resources, comments, and questions. This website features resources that have been reviewed, developed, and recommended to support integration of this philosophy in K to grade 12 teaching and learning programs.
The archived webinar provides an overview of the materials and resources accessible through this website along with the background information regarding the Inquiry Project. The 2:40 video provided an invitation to participate in the inquiry. |
