What is eWISE?
What is eWISE?
Wake County adopted a county-wide research process called eWISE beginning in the 2013-2014 school year. It is an acronym that describes the research process (Wonder, Investigate, Synthesize, and Express–with the small “e” at the front standing for “evaluate”, which happens throughout the process). We stress the idea that research is a cyclical process rather than a linear one.
