A new teacher suggests that all teaching should be inquiry-based. Describe this approach and either support or reject the teacher's view.

What will be an ideal response?


Ans: Students should indicate inquiry learning has been around since the time of Dewey and is fundamentally a research type of learning; students investigate as a scientist would to find the answer to the question or solution to the stated problem. The teacher's position should not be supported because in the modern world of standards and testing it would not be possible to cover all tested material if inquiry were the only method of instruction.
