Hello, just for introductory's sake, my name is Luisana Taveras and I am an upcoming sophomore here at Bryn Mawr College. This summer I am one of Professor Grobstein's interns for the Brain and Behavior Institute that just past as well an assistant for the remaining institutes including this Science as Inquiry institute.

Seeing as to how I am not teacher, my thoughts on inquirycomes from my experience as a student who (I feel) did not recieve a sufficient inquiry-based education. My pre-college education was a mile wide and an inch deep because non-inquiry based lessons just do not matter to a student; it does not stick in his/her mind.

Incorporating interactive interdisciplinary-based learning improves a student’s inquiry skills and is a valuable tool (please see successive post) for people at any and every point of his/her life which is why it should be implemented in all levels of education.
