The HRL framework has helped shape my mindset on the importance of my kids identity being present in my classroom. They should not only be seen and heard but also begin to think critically by challenging the so called norms of society. @DrPorcher @GholdyM#TeacherEduMatters
@ms_clarksclssrm Julie, you hit the nail right on the head! You're right. Inquiry based instruction does involve a teacher using a student-centered approach and making them vital members of the classroom. I hope you had the opportunity to experience an inquiry teacher. Thanks so much!
@mggranato99 Gabby, I'm so glad you had a lot of experience with inquiry teachers. Your high school psych teacher sounds awesome! I feel like they are rare and hard to come by. I'm hoping in the future more educators will adopt this approach. Thanks so much!
@ELAJCreigh Jess, I'm happy you enjoyed the video! Also, my APUSH teacher was also an inquiry teacher. What a coincidence! Having an inquiry teacher really does help a student achieve success in the classroom. Thanks so much!
@misshotis Daphne, I'm glad you had experience with an inquiry teacher. Also, I love that your teacher would ask you "how does this make you better." Such a powerful question! Your teacher was truly involving you in the classroom and helping you make connections. Thanks so much!
@julreeves Julie, I'm so happy you had experience with an inquiry teacher. They truly are great! I also loved that you mentioned empathy which I believe is such an important thing to have when dealing with students. Thanks so much!
@OliviaAngharad Liv, I like how you mentioned curiosity and no harsh judgments. I 100% agree with you. This is an important mindset to have as an educator and it's vital to be open minded with your students. Thanks so much!
@Miss_HeidiF Heidi, I love that you mentioned "seeing students as partners in learning". This is so important! This is something I believe (some) educators often forget. It's so important that a student is actively involved in the planning/ learning process! They deserve a say. Thanks!
@hayley_whiting Hayley, I agree that Dr. Flynn is a good example! Also, I like how you mentioned they are prepared to say "I don't know." This is a phrase I believe many are afraid to admit, but I believe it has some benefit. It can be a learning moment for both parties. Thanks so much!
