Inquiry is a trail a visitor can follow

This page is for a school using the phrase loosely. Notice friction. Write a researchable question. Date evidence. Revise the model. Then communicate. Narrow field friction into an inquiry question.

The sequence that stays

Keep four-column friction log, researchable question, dated evidence, revised model. A visitor should follow the trail without a speech.

What the phrase will not mean here

Inquiry-based STEM is not a poster hour. A beautiful board carrying a dead question is the trail inverted.
