Revised Core Concept Map - PME 801

Effective collaboration in education revolves around problem-solving, where teachers are responsible for designing activities that are engaging, discovery-based, and purposeful. This approach not only fosters student judgment and personal belief but also supports professional development for educators.

Revised Core Concept Map - PME 801

What is Collaborative Inquiry? Teachers and administration working together to identify common challenges, working cohesively to achieve common goals, analyze data, and refine instructional skills.

Burning Questions:

1.How can we actively engage students in their own problem solving processes?

2. How can our biases and previous experiences be of benefit to the CI process?
3. How can we create a supportive environment that encourages CI?
