What is Inquiry-based learning:
Inquiry based learning is a more hands on, students centered approach to learning. In inquiry-based learning, students are able to explore and develop problem solving skills. This looks like students asking questions which then lead to hands on exploration of these such as experiments and labs, students then can discover answers! This way of learning is good due to it being focused on student's ideas and thoughts. This is important for teachers to do because, allowing students to find the answer is more important, then just giving students the answers to questions and having them memorize it, most of the time students will forget the answer if they only memorize it for a test.
