Matching Pairs Inquiry Research BasicsOnline version Practice with the basics of inquiry research. by Kevin Calderin 1 Observation 2 Research 3 Inquiry Questions 4 Driving Question 5 Claim 6 Search 7 Theory 8 Report An assertion of truth. That which one says to "be the case". What you ask when investigating and solving deep problems. As information is gathered, these lead to further investigation. Unlike an inquiry project, preparing this does not necessarily require asking questions to which we do not know the answer. The purpose is to present facts in an organized and meaningful way that informs the reader. Its primary process is about finding, sorting, and repeating learned data, not on problem solving. Using tools such as Google, our library database, or other source collections or search engines. After initially gathering information, this means following chains of questions to seek out more sources, verify found data, and draw conclusions. It is often done to generate a potential solution to a problem or to decide which course of action to take. It is a process that demands critical thinking and is supported by careful documentation over time. A group of linked ideas intended to explain something. It can be considered the framework for explaining observations and making hypotheses. These hypotheses can be tested to provide support for, or challenge, it. In Mr. Calderin's class, this means focusing one's awareness on learned details from literature, media, common language, culture, government, and social interactions. As Mr. Calderin's class investigates a real problem in the world, they organize their searches, writing, and discussion around it.
