4 Inquiry Learning & the World of Work

5 Inquiry-based learning (IBL) IBL aims to develop and foster inquiring minds and attitudes that are vital for students being able to face and manage uncertain futures. Fundamentally, IBL is based on students adopting an active, questioning approach. www.fisme.science.uu.nl/en/mascil/ibl/

6 World of Work (WoW) Mascil materials are tasks suitable for IBL (and the teaching) set in rich vocational contexts. Students have a role as professionals. Activities within the task relate to the world of work. The outcome is a product for an audience to use. www.fisme.science.uu.nl/en/mascil/wow/
