What do you truly love to do?
That single question put educator Trevor MacKenzie and a struggling student on an unintended and life-changing journey of inquiry, discovery and meaningful learning. It was a journey that completely reshaped the way MacKenzie leads his classroom.
With the belief that all students deserve a chance to dig into their wonders and curiosities, MacKenzie proposes a scaffolded approach to student-centred learning by identifying the Types of Student Inquiry: Structured, Controlled, Guided and Free Inquiry. Each type requires students take progressively more control over their own learning. This inquiry-based learning model equips students to become lifelong learners by nurturing wonder, curiosity and agency in the classroom.
