Why is it necessary for multiple Inquiry models to exist? Include a discussion of what influences different community approaches to solving problems, and provide an example of one community's approach
What will be an ideal response?
It is necessary for many Inquiry models to exist because each model is a product of the community that has created it and emanates from that community's need to solve perceived problems. A particular community's methods for solving problems are influenced by (1) what specific problems confront the community, (2) how the community perceives these problems, (3) which tools the community has access to when solving the problem, and (4) what methods individuals in this community deem are best to address these problems. For instance, the WebQuest model originated in the educational technology community and emerged from a need the members had for structuring the exploration of information resources available on the Internet for the academic purposes of students at all academic levels.

A manager of an inclusive sports programme in schools was concerned about the lack of girls being recruited on to the programme. There were thirty places on the programme and fifty children had applied, of which only ten were girls. Theoretically, all the children in the participating schools have an equal probability of being recruited as they all match the selection criteria, i.e. they are children at a participating school. However, the manager has data that suggests that boys are more likely to join school based sports programmes than girls based on data from across the school sports programme nationally and from within her own programme historically. However the manager has heavily promoted this initiative, specifically targeting girls and therefore wants to determine the
probability that still fewer girls than boys will join. What formula could she use to determine this probability? A. Bayes’ theorem. B. NHST C. Pearson’s r D. Cronbach’s Alpha
