Inquiry

In inquiry we have been doing a big research task in groups of 3 or 4. Our task is to choose out of the countries Mrs Goldfinch had given us to choose from. My group is doing Syria, some other groups are doing countries like China, Uganda, South Africa and many more. We had to complete various questions about 5 categories using the different solo taxonomy words about our country. The 5 categories were, culture, geography, resources, history and issues and problems. The questions were mostly based on human rights, because that was the topic we had been focusing on before this. Here's some of the questions that are on the sheet -
- How does the religion of the country impact citizen's freedom?
- What would it be like to go to school in your country?
- Do the country's politics violate human rights?
- What does your country import/export?
- Imagine if you were the leader of your country. What would you do? How long would it take before you see a significant change?

these are just some examples of the questions we have to do. We had to research these questions or if they require thinking we would do so, there were options on how we could display our research/answers like on myportfolio pages which the teachers had set up, on a prezi or on a poster, etc. We are now nearing the end of our research topic,mostof us just have to finish of those last questions.
