| Meta-Principle: Promote Autonomous Life Long Learning |
| Promoting autonomy so students can become lifelong learners involves establishing a rich, comprehensive inquiry process that students can apply to varied problems both in science class and throughout their lives. Students need to guide their own learning, recognize new ideas, and develop a view of effective inquiry to become autonomous science learners. To become autonomous lifelong learners students need opportunities to generate and recognize new ideas and to connect them to existing ideas, they need to learn to monitor their progress so that they gain more cohesive understanding. They need to engage in sustained project work so they can connect personally relevant problems to class topics, and reflect on experience using a robust inquiry process in diverse contexts. Instruction should help students become autonomous by providing varied supports and communicating a robust inquiry process. | ||||
