Ignite learning: put reading at the heart of inquiry-based learning

Unlock the essential link between reading and inquiry-based learning methods. This talk will help you integrate reading as a core resource that actively fuels Problem-Based, Team-Based, and Project-Based learning activities. We will discover how you can harness reading as an essential activity that engages the basic four skills, as well as visual/multimodal literacy, critical literacy, and collaboration. We will think in terms of short- and long-term projects at both primary and secondary levels. You will receive clear, age-appropriate scaffolding, with one activity example tailored for each level per approach.
