3. Explain the reasons why inquiry-based

instruction may be beneficial for students
Inquiry-based Learning
is a student-centered
approach to learning that
emphasizes critical thinking
and problem-solving.
In an inquiry-based classroom, students actively ask
questions, plan investigations, conduct experiments,
analyze data, and draw conclusions.
This instruction lets students control their learning

and develop a deeper understanding of their studying
concepts.
Key Characteristics
of Inquiry-Based
Learning
1. It is active, not passive.
Inquiry-based learning is an active process.

Students are actively engaged in posing questions,
finding information, and making sense of what they
find. They are not passively receiving information from a
teacher or textbook.
2. It starts with a question, problem, or scenario.
Inquiry-based learning begins with a question, problem,

or scenario. This gives students a purpose for their
learning and allows them to focus on finding a solution.
3. A teacher or other
adult often facilitates it.
A teacher or other adult

often facilitates inquiry-
based learning. The role
of the facilitator is to help
students ask good
questions, find relevant
information, and make
sense of what they find.
4. It is often contrasted with conventional education.
Inquiry-based learning often contrasts with conventional

education, which relies heavily on passive learning
techniques such as lectures. Inquiry-based learning is often
seen as a more effective way to learn since it is more active
and engaging.
5. It can be used in both formal and informal
educational settings.
Inquiry-based learning can be used in both formal and

informal educational settings. It is particularly well
suited for problem-solving, critical, and creative
thinking.
1. Inquiry-based instruction can help students
to develop a deeper understanding of
content.
When students are actively involved in asking

questions and seeking answers, they are more
likely to develop a deeper understanding of the
content than if they listen to a lecture or read a
textbook.
This is because they are actively engaged in
making meaning of the material rather than
passively receiving information. Additionally, by
working together to find answers to questions,
students can build on each other’s
understanding and create a complete
understanding of the content.
2. Inquiry-based instruction can encourage
students to be more independent learners.
One of the goals of education is to help students

learn how to be independent learners. Inquiry-based
instruction can help students develop this skill by
encouraging them to take charge of their learning.
When students are used to asking questions and
seeking answers independently, they will be more
likely to do this outside the classroom.
to develop critical thinking skills.
Inquiry-based instruction requires students to

think critically about the information they are
learning. They must evaluate evidence, consider
different perspectives, and make reasoned
arguments. These are all crucial skills that will
help students in their future studies and careers.
to learn how to work cooperatively.
Inquiry-based instruction often requires students

to work together to find answers to questions.
This can help students to develop necessary
teamwork skills, as well as communication and
negotiation skills. These skills will be beneficial
in both their academic and professional lives.
5. Inquiry-based instruction can be more
engaging for students.
Inquiry-based instruction is often more engaging for

students than traditional instruction. This is
because it is active rather than passive and allows
students to be more involved in their learning.
Additionally, inquiry-based instruction can make
learning more relevant to students by allowing them
to explore topics they are interested in.
While inquiry-based instruction has many
benefits, it is essential to note that it is
inappropriate for all situations. In some cases,
traditional instruction may be more effective.
However, inquiry-based instruction can be a
valuable tool for educators to help students learn
more effectively.
