Inquiry Movement Webinar Series
Join Trevor for a special four part webinar series focusing on enriching your inquiry practice and creating an inquiry movement.
The Inquiry Movement Series consists of…
You and your curiosity! You are a critical friend in this work and your experience and wonderings will help shape this offering and the learning we experience!
Four 1.5 hour webinars with an additional optional 30 minute question / answer / conversation portion to conclude each session. 2 hours per session for a total of 8 hours of learning! Participants will receive a certificate of completion for 8 hours of professional learning upon the completion of the series. These are not pre-recorded so if you attend live you’ll be in the learning with Trevor and everyone else!
Options to participate synchronously or asynchronously by watching the recordings at a time that works for you! No matter where you are in the world, the door is open to have you participate!
Monthly newsletter reminders with extensions and resources to continuously help support your implementation of practices explored throughout the series.
Multiple giveaways and perhaps some surprise appearances by leading educators across the globe!
Series Details…
Session 1: What is ‘inquiry’? Wednesday, September 3, 3:30pmPST.
Unpack the dos and don’t of inquiry to help create a landscape for both student and teacher agency.
Explore the Types of Student Inquiry and go deeper into how schools remove the barriers to implementing inquiry in the k-12 setting.
Reflect on the dispositions of the inquiry teacher and set personalized goals to grow in your own inquiry stance.
Begin to document your learning journey through the Documentation Clinic.
Session 2: Planning for inquiry Wednesday, October 15, 3:30pmPST.
Introduction to the Planning for Inquiry framework, a design cycle that intentionally sparks student curiosity to your curriculum, allowing student generated questions to guide learning and a more authentic inquiry experience for all.
Building on your understanding from Session 1, we will begin to understand the critical role of Question Routines to help co-design learning and impact student agency.
An exploration of several of the ten high impact Question Routines from Inquiry Mindset Questions Edition will shape our learning including classroom examples, videos, and provocations to bring context and clarity to your learning.
Begin to implement the Planning for Inquiry framework on your own!
Session 3: Structures for Independence Wednesday, November 26, 3:30pmPST.
In inquiry, the more agency there is, the more structures for independence teachers have at the ready to provide. If we want independent learners, structures for independence are a huge help!
An exploration of several classrooms through 360 virtual resources will shape our examination of universal supports, differentiated spaces, and structures for independence.
Reflection is at the heart of inquiry and personalized goal setting allows student agency to thrive and independence to take flight.
Begin to build your own structures for independence to best support the students you serve.
Session 4: Learning Walls and Agentic Evidencing Wednesday, January 14, 3:30pmPST.
Explore the tenets of building a learning wall and how we can begin to invite our students into the realm of evidencing and documenting their learning.
Unpack the parameters of powerful learning walls and examine a series of examples from classrooms around the world.
Consideration given to how the structures for independence in Session 3 are scaffolds and artifacts to help your learning walls begin to take shape. Clear connections will be made as to how learning walls are spaces for agency and co-design.
Begin your own evidencing through learning walls.
The Inquiry Movement Series will…
Provide multiple examples and anecdotal evidence of how research-based strategies in inquiry are revolutionizing teaching and learning across the globe!
Show and share effective and easy-to-implement strategies and a kit of resources to help you give it a go right after the first session!
Deliver powerful and engaging PD that you will be credited for through a completion certificate at the end of the four sessions.

Have you read my most recent blog posts?
One of the most fruitful opportunities in all of the work I do with schools (see a glimpse of these offerings here) is within the Learning Lab model. I have written about learning labs before and shared how they get to the heart of inquiry, allowing teachers to co-plan, co-teach, and reflect together across the span of a single day. There are a number of specific resources that I use to help colleagues I have the good fortune to co-teach with and I to make the most of our partnership. There are a few Learning Labs models schools and I discuss to help maximize impact for staff and spread the learning as much as we can. We care about student learning and teacher learning. We care about creating capacity and impact. We care about getting the absolute most out of our investment of time, budget, and effort.
