Integrating Inquiry Across the Curriculum Reviews

"There is a series of concrete guidelines and suggestions for facilitating implementation of inquiry-based instruction that teachers will find very useful . . . this is a worthwhile collection of essays that could easily serve as a stimulating and beneficial book for a reading group or staff development resource." -- NSTA Recommends, October 2005
"As the book makes apparent, any good inquiry starts out with a good question. As it turns out, these questions are good starting points for inquiries by educators into inquiry, and this volume is an excellent companion to beginning such a quest." -- PsycCRITIQUES, January 2006

"This collection of case studies will provide teachers with the necessary background to transform their classrooms and to maximize student learning."

-- Curriculum Connections, Spring 2006
