A question that comes up often is “How do I/we choose an inquiry goal?” Sometimes it might be an intuitive feeling that something is not working effectively or could work better.
Inquiry goals can be sparked by wondering why something is working well, doing an inquiry, then using the findings to work on enhancing other areas.
There might be something you have noticed about your practice, the environment, or the children and their families that you want to investigate more thoroughly.
Consider:
•Creating an overview of your areas of strength, your passions and areas you would like to enhance.
•Where you could concentrate your energies in order to improve children’s experiences and, subsequently, their learning.
•What learning is happening for the children in your setting? Can it be enhanced?
•When reflecting on Our Code Our Standards, is there an area you have identified that you want to enhance?
•Is there something about your teaching practice you would like to look at indepth?
•Opportunities and challenges within your setting that you are aware of and could investigate further.
•Ideas and new learnings from research, professional development and others/colleagues that you would like to incorporate into your practice.
