Creativity. I think this is the key word for this chapter. Students perform better and have greater self-efficacy when we foster their creativity. I loved having the inquiry based broad questions and then allowing students to discover the learning associated with the question. The question I have is how do you develop the inquiry questions? We are so stuck in standards and GLE's that I am not sure how to step back from that and find the big question. I want to know how to do this. I want this kind of learning in my classroom. Partnering inquiry with multi-genre writing, student blogs and goal setting would be the ideal classroom set up. The problem is, I need the support. I need a mentor.
I need to use creative problem solving to figure this out--to find my flow. Anyone have ideas on how to do this in your classroom?
