[I have posted this at the start of the Topic as well.]
The Q&A with Barbara Stripling will take place on Sunday 28 March 2021 at 2pm-3.30pm GMT / UTC and is centred on this discussion.
The Q&A will be recorded for colleagues who are not be able to join us for practical reasons.
As with everything on the FOSIL Group website, the chapter that we will be discussing – Empowering Students to Inquire in a Digital Environment – is free to download for purposes of the discussion here with the kind permission of colleagues at School Library Connection and Libraries Unlimited / ABC-CLIO.
While it will be possible to follow the discussion without joining the FOSIL Group, participating in the discussion will require registering for an account, which is free.
If inquiry, as we are coming to understand it, is “a dynamic process and stance aimed at building knowledge and understanding of the world and ourselves in it as the basis for responsible participation in community,” then inquiry in a digital environment is of vital concern for us, and we hope that many of you will be able to join us in this discussion, whether directly or indirectly.
