The box and arrow diagram has four boxes arranged in a square pattern, showing four stages of learning through enquiry. Firstly, the top left-hand side box is entitled ‘Creating a need to know, to’. Underneath the title there are 9 bullet points listing related activities: be curious, speculate, hypothesise, use imagination, generate ideas, make links with existing knowledge, identify issues, ask questions and finally plan how to research.
An arrow points to the second box on the top right-hand side of the diagram. The box has the title ‘Using data’. Underneath the title there are 6 bullet points listing related activities: locate evidence, collect evidence, select evidence, sort data, classify data and sequence data.
An arrow points to the third box on the bottom right-hand side of the diagram. The box has the title ‘Making sense: to make connections of all sorts, including to’. Underneath the title there are 11 bullet points listing related activities: relate existing knowledge to new knowledge, describe, explain, compare, contrast, analyse, interpret, recognise relationships, analyse values, clarify values and reach conclusions.
An arrow points to the fourth box on the bottom left-hand side of the diagram. The box has the title ‘Reflecting on learning: to be critical in relation to’. Underneath the title there are 9 bullet points listing aspects about which learners should be critical: data sources, skills and techniques used, criteria for making judgements, opinions, what has been learned, how it has been learned, how the enquiry could be improved, how the enquiry could be further developed, the value of what has been learned.
An arrow points to the first box on the top left-hand side of the diagram (the first one described in this text). The arrow has text alongside it, which reads ‘applying what has been learned to the next enquiry’.
