Igniting Inquiry with Think, Puzzle, and Explore. Earlier this month, my colleague Jennifer Lund and I met with Linda Katz and Elizabeth Hollis, two of our 11th grade Language Arts teachers, to plan their upcoming research unit on sustainability.

We wanted to do something fun and interesting to introduce the range of topics to students that would engage them and not begin with them just browsing the resources on the project LibGuide. We initially considered using the write-around strategy, but with so many sections of classes and possibilities for topics/subtopics, we felt the prep work involved was a bit overwhelming for the time we had available to get the materials together. We decided to use another strategy, though, that involved thinking and writing called Think, Puzzle, Explore, a routine for learning that “sets the stage for deeper inquiry.” Since many teachers are utilizing strategies from Making Thinking Visible, we felt this would be the perfect learning structure to introduce 11th graders to sustainability topics. 1. 2. 3.

40 fantastic project outlines by my fabulous #EDMT5500 students. The final task that my students had to produce as part of the EDMT5500 unit of study at Sydney University is a project outline. I am very pleased that the course coordinator gave me the freedom to reshape the assessment for this course as it gave me the chance to give students some experience with project design. Here is the project outline for the task itself: My students rose to the challenge and created some brilliant projects that I know you will all be keen to teach! There are forty different projects from a range of different subjects and different ages from K-12.
