The document discusses teaching science through inquiry and the challenges of implementing inquiry-based science education. It describes how inquiry mirrors the scientific process and helps students develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills valued by employers. However, preparing teachers, a lack of supportive curricula, and difficulties assessing inquiry skills present challenges. The document advocates for assessments that measure both content knowledge and inquiry abilities to better prepare students for future workplace demands.
