This book is about enquiry based learning (and related problem based learning - EBL and PBL) and its implications for teachers, schools, students and society. Many within the education community, teachers and academics feel that ’standards’ education is not serving us well: not preparing students for work, life, HE, citizenship, health & well-being, and not sustaining interest in education and learning. Standards education is not providing a balanced, purposeful, motivating curriculumMany schools in the UK and indeed other countries have lost a vision of the curriculum as an induction into the challenges, joys and stresses of life, or indeed any vision of the curriculum as a transformative or societal medium. Schools are shaped by socio-cultural historical factors which predominantly stress exam performance. However both amongst teachers and wider society there is a considerable suppressed desire to transform educational outcomes and EBL and PBL are the prime candidates for achieving such a goal. Enquiry is education driven by curiosity, questions and solving problems and the outcomes are both equal or better than standard outcomes and also better intrinsically, preparing students to be learners and citizens.
