KB is a unique form of inquiry-based learning, an approach to teaching and learning that places students’ ideas and observations at the center of the learning experience. Educators play an active role throughout the process by establishing a culture in which ideas are respectfully challenged, tested, redefined, and viewed as improvable and move students from a position of wondering to a position of enacted understanding and further questions (Scardamalia, 2002)

The following KB podcasts are part of the London East podcasting series, "Illuminations". The current voices from the field gathered here in this Knowledge Building Hub, serve as evidence based examples of educators who are on a quest to guide and improve student learning in a space where all ideas can live, grow and develop . . .
