Hey everyone, here is my metamorphosis for the last cycle of this school year and my inquiry question is "what makes a good education?" How my inquiry now impacts my thinking Before I did this research, I never really saw outside my own "world".

I think that it's because movies, tv shows, etc all make stereotypes as to what schools look like. For an...Read More...

Hey everyone, here is my first round of research with my question "What makes a good education?" How people learn? People influence their educations in many different ways. A person needs to want to learn, if they are going to learn. If someone were to take a class that they are barely interested in, it's likely that they won't succeed in that class as much .(1) The best way for a person to learn is to do. You can sit there and watch someone explain to you how algebra works and the steps of...Read More...
