Inquiry and curiosity in biology

Pages 215-223 | Published online: 13 Dec 2010
 

Abstract

An investigation is described into the interrelations of inquiry-oriented curricula and the development of inquiry skills and scientific curiosity amongst high school students in Israel. Results for whole classes seem to indicate a high correlation between inquiry performance and level of curiosity but this is not reflected in the performance of individuals. Little relationship was found between inquiry-oriented instruction and the development of inquiry skills and scientific curiosity.
