Project-Based Learning
Today’s students need more than technology instruction. They need to develop critical thinking, problem solving, and other 21st century skills to excel in today’s digital world.
Inquiry uses a project-based approach to integrating technology into core instruction. It goes beyond teaching technology skills and gives our students the opportunity to explore real-world challenges in the classroom, preparing them for college and career.
With projects in ELA, math, science and social studies, Inquiry helps our students learn core content while develop crucial digital literacy skills while working both independently and in a group setting.
