Description/Abstract
Our discussion panel will present methods for enhancing undergraduate research by implementing an Inquiry Guided Learning (IGL) approach. IGL is a multi-faceted method for promoting critical thinking and independence when students are researching complex problems and issues without a simple, single answer. Each panel participant has completed the IGL workshop at our university, and we are all in the process of implementing changes to our courses inspired by our understanding of IGL. We would each explain how we applied IGL practices to our specific disciplines (English, Communication, Mathematics, Military Studies).
