TC Inquiry Communities

Inquiry communities allow an opportunity for teachers to work together to research and develop a new theory or technique that can then be applied to the classroom or school environment.  With guidance from a member of the Leadership Team, TCs will learn to conduct research, collect and analyze data, and write a report of the results.  Topics for TCICs are limited only by the imagination of the participants.  Contact the Inquiry Team for further information and to start a community.
