Inquiry-based learning for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) programs a conceptual and practical resource for educators

Inquiry-based learning (IBL) is a learner-centered active learning environment where deep learning is cultivated by a process of inquiry owned by the learner. It has roots in a constructivist educational philosophy and is oriented around three components: 1) exploration and discovery (e.g. problem-b...
