Session Resources 

Avoid over prescription and stop denying your students the chance to explore by implementing The Inquiry Design Model (IDM).  Learn how to create a quality IDM lesson, practice question writing, integrate appropriate technology tools, and collaborate with others to create a lesson you can use next year.  IDM lessons help students practice a variety of skills such as integrating and evaluating content from a variety of media and formats, analyzing and comparing two or more texts, and reading closely to make and support logical inferences and conclusions.  Come join the fun and explore the world of IDM.
