GDPI-PME 801 Collaborative Inquiry - Ryan Goldie

Effective educational inquiry necessitates a stable environment, structured leadership, and well-defined protocols. Successful implementation relies on organizing collaborative teams, often involving teacher-leaders, and balancing support with pressure to sustain long-term efforts.

GDPI-PME 801 Collaborative Inquiry - Ryan Goldie

"The central point of education is to teach people to think, to use their rational powers, to become better problem solvers" (Gagne, 1980, in Jonassen, 2000)

Can be learned

"Inquiry cannot take place without stable settings, but stable settings will not result in joint productive activity without carefully arranged job-alike teams, a distributed leadership model that provides ongoing support and pressure, and well-articulated protocols for conducting the study of teaching and learning." (Ermeling, 2010)

What steps can you take to create an environment where educators engage in a cycle of collaborative inquiry?

Self-Efficacy

Motivation - balanced extrinsic & intrinsic

Good principals and assistant principals are central to the success of this work but they cannot do it alone. Organizing a campus into teams, identifying and training teacher-leaders, and working to support these leaders through a careful balance of support and pressure, helps make possible the otherwise daunting task of sustaining a long-term teacher inquiry effort (Goldenberg, 2004; Saunders & Goldenberg, 2005, in Emerling, 2010).
