This book grew from a simple but powerful idea: that inquiry is not something teachers do occasionally, but a way of thinking, noticing, and growing in everyday practice.
Whether you’re in a Bachelor of Education program, early in your career, an experienced teacher, or mentoring others, this book is designed to support inquiry as a professional habit. It's grounded in research, responsive to classroom realities, and oriented toward meaningful change.
A defining feature of the book is the "Inquiry Studio", which invites readers to reflect and take action through three prompts: Purpose, Try This, and Why This Matters.
Together, these support reflective, intentional, and responsive teaching across contexts.
Small questions really can spark big learning — for students and for ourselves.
