Inquiry-Based Instruction in English Language Arts

Inquiry-based instruction engages learners in exploring authentic, important, and meaningful questions of real concern to students. This course also provides opportunities for candidates to gain experience in assessing, preparing, and teaching problem-based lessons through an extensive associated field experience (EST 398). Physical materials and strategies for teaching English Language Arts at the intermediate and secondary level are considered, as are student characteristics, teaching and learning styles, issues of equity and diversity and constructivist theories of learning.
