This document discusses revising the research consultation model at Indiana University's Learning Commons Research Desk to be more inquiry-based and dialogic. It draws from learning theories like inquiry-based learning and dialogic learning to make consultations more collaborative and student-centered. An example consultation is provided that focuses on developing transferable skills through strategizing search terms and sources for a student's research topic. The goal is to engage students more in driving their own learning through discussion rather than a transactional exchange.
