Inquiry-based learning is an approach to learning that emphasizes the student’s role in the learning process. Rather than the teacher telling students what they need to know, students are encouraged to explore the material, ask questions, and share ideas. Inquiry-based learning is more than asking a student what he or she wants to know. It is about triggering curiosity, wonder, interest or passion to understand an observation or to solve a problem as active learners.
