Inquiry is at the heart of what I teach in the LMC. The Empire State Information Fluency Continuum is a document that guides me in crafting a curriculum to assist students of all ages in developing the skills needed to be effective users of information. One of the ways I help students to understand that inquiry is a process that looks different for each learner and each question is by sharing Barbara Striplings' model of inquiry. It illustrates the research process as non-linear and adaptive.
