This National Science Foundation publication is intended to serve as a practical
document for practitioners, administrators, and science supporters who are working
to integrate inquiry into elementary classrooms. Thirteen essays explore a broad
range of topics about inquiry—historical and philosophical views, ideas
about learning through inquiry, glimpses of inquiry in the classroom, and assessing
science inquiry.
