Making Inquiry Mobile – Apps for Inquiry Learning. Inspired by the work happening at St Oliver Plunkett Cannon Hill (which you can read about here), I decided to undertake further exploration into how iPads might support inquiry learning. A followup post will take this one step further, focusing on using the inquiry learning process to frame workflows to stimulate deep and authentic learning. The model of inquiry I chose to use was the LADDER model, which I developed several years ago in an attempt to create a model which had an easy to understand language that both students and teachers could understand.

What is LADDER? The LADDER model takes it name from the stages of the process, which are not linear, but iterative, as learners work through the process of creating responses to the inquiry question. The stages are:Launch, Access, Develop, Demonstrate, Evaluate and Reflect. Linking apps to the inquiry process Let’s examine each stage of the model more closely, and identify apps which might be useful during this phase.

L = Launch A = Access.
