TPGP

Incorporating inquiry learning into the classroom provides students with better logic and problem solving skills, and enhances their ability to think critically. Students learn to pre-analyze tasks before approaching them concretely. Students also learn to think critically, not just about mathematics but every other subject, and many tasks in the real world.

Reflection/Indicator of Success
a) How successful have I been in meeting my goal?
I will judge my success by using formative assessment throughout the unit in the classroom to
see where students stand with their understanding of the topic, and pose theory-based questions
to students to check their critical understanding based off of the inquiry.
b) How has my professional practice improved?
My professional practice will improve with the implementation of inquiry learning as I will be
trying to open students eyes to different ways of approaching problems, rather than providing
them with equations and an answer sheet, allowing students to explore mathematics at a more
critical level.
c) How has student learning improved?
Including inquiry learning into the classroom provides students with better logic and problem
solving skills, and enhances their ability to think critically, not only about mathematics but every
other subject, and many tasks in the real world. Students learn to pre-analyze tasks before
approaching them concretely.
