information and
context; can be
individual or
collaborative.
Begin developing
questions (essential

Find and evaluate information
to answer questions, test
hypothesis, refine questions
and topic. Think about
information to illuminate new
questions and hypotheses.
Construct new understandings connected to
previous knowledge
Connect essential questions to new
understandings and insights
Draw conclusions
Revisit information and find additional
information as needed to take next steps
toward answering essential and guiding
questions.
Apply understandings
to a new context, new
learning situation
Express new ideas to
share learning with
others
Reflect
Self-assessment
Identify future
questions for inquiry
