Experience at PSII

After visiting the Pacific School of Innovation and Inquiry I feel like I have grasped a better understanding of inquiry and how it works. I finally realized that it is normal to face a lot of struggles when first investigating inquiry. Shifting one’s mindset is not an easy thing to do and at PSII I began to feel more confident about being able to learn through an inquiry-based process when I started coming up with more questions.

I found a lot of the structures they used for learning to be highly interesting. For instance,  the different steps for inquiry and how it works I wouldn’t have thought could have fit in a structure. I thought inquiry was nonconstructive and free-flowing which isn’t entirely realistic because it is something that needs to start more guided and slowly become free inquiry.
