Practical examples from QF classrooms will highlight authentic approaches to inquiry. Through collaborative tasks, teachers will leave with strategies to strengthen learner agency and engagement in their subject disciplines. Emphasis will be placed on aligning inquiry with QF policies, local context, and assessment practices. Teachers will collaborate to adapt strategies and co-develop classroom-ready ideas that balance IB philosophy with QF school realities.
