Welcome! This website is provided as a resource for STEM teaching – focusing on Inquiry approaches to teaching and learning. The materials provided were produced by classroom teachers (K-8) who have been involved in professional development projects aimed at helping them to develop their Inquiry skills.
The projects shared here were funded by grants from the Virginia Department of Education, through the federal Math – Science Partnership program, and NCLB Title IIB initiative. Central Virginia teachers, from six public school divisions and area private schools, worked in partnership with Education and STEM faculty as they engaged in increasingly student-centered approaches to teaching.
