Chapter 3

Laying the Foundation for Personal Digital Inquiry

In this chapter, you will:

learn about the cultural forces that can work together to transform the culture of your classroom
use a self-reflection tool to intentionally guide your purposeful planning of PDI practices
consider ways of cultivating inquiry to meet the unique needs of your students with tips for managing the learning environment, developing skills and routines, and working with texts, tools, and technologies

Key Idea:

Cultural Forces for Grounding and Growing Personal Digital Inquiry

In the book, we provide concrete definitions for each of these cultural forces to help better understand each on their own before we turn our attention to how they can work together to enrich the PDI experiences in your learning environment. Then, we offer a PDI self-reflection tool that helps to acknowledge your accomplishments in each area, identify points of challenge, and decide where to focus your energy next.
