Different Levels or Types of Inquiry
▪︎Confirmation Inquiry
▪︎Structured Inquiry
▪︎Guided Inquiry
▪︎Free Inquiry
This level is more “teacher-centered” or “closed.” In this type of inquiry, the teacher leads the class by teaching the concepts and creating the questions.
Confirmation Inquiry
this type of inquiry, the teacher creates the initial set of questions. The teacher also shares the procedures with the students.
Structured Inquiry
Here, the teacher still chooses the topics or creates the initial research questions, but does not tell the students how they will solve the problem.
Guided Inquiry
This is also known as “open,” “independent,” or “true” inquiry. In this level or type of inquiry, the students choose their own topics, formulate or ask their own questions, and find the answers themselves.
Free Inquiry
The Four Phases of Inquiry
▪︎Orientation
▪︎Conceptualization
▪︎Investigation
▪︎Conclusion

Conceptualization
Students research, explore, discover, do experiments, and interpret data in a flexible, dynamic, and cyclical manner.
Investigation
Students make a conclusion based on their findings. Make sure that you allow your students to immediately share what they have discovered and learned.
