What is Inquiry in the ReadingWriting Classroom
bull Inquiry is an instructional focus that engages students in activities to help them develop skills or strategies for dealing with data in order to say or write something about the data (Hillocks)
bull The data appear in the ldquotextsrdquo students are reading or viewing
bull The inquiry is posed in a prompt
bull Students develop knowledge and cognitive strategies for effective reading and analysis as they develop responses to the inquiry
Developing Inquiry Prompts in the ReadingWriting Classroom
bull Present students with sets of data about a controversial situation
bull The data should include information about the controversy and various perspectives on the controversy
bull The prompt should ask students to support an argument or a recommendation to resolve the controversy or at least to move forward on it
Adapted from George Hillocks ldquoWhat Works in Written Compositionrdquo
Examples of Inquiry Promptsbull Adapted from a study by Lynn Troyka cited in Hillocks
You are a legislative analyst for a member of the city council and have been asked to write a position paper on the problem of pollution in our small coastal community and how it affects our tourist trade
Consider the statement of the problem and the views presented by
-the conservationist concerned about the balance of nature in the
area
-the executive of the chemical plant responsible for the pollution
-the unemployed male hoping to be hired at the chemical plant
-the member of the Department of Environmental Conservation
responsible for working out a compromise
Then write a recommendation for the position the city council member should take on this issue Support your argument
Another Inquiry Prompt
bull From Robinsonrsquos Texts and Contexts
Carefully examine the information above on gun-related violence and come to a conclusion on whether handguns should be banned or licensed in the United States on a national basis
Traits of Inquiry Promptsbull Inquiry prompts refer students to the data which may appear
in the textbook in videos in interviews on the internet in workplace observations etc
bull The data are limited That is the information students have to work with is sufficient to allow ldquostudents to concentrate on the strategies of formulating and supporting generalizations predicting and countering other arguments and so forth without being overwhelmedhelliprdquo (Hillocks)
bull Inquiry prompts afford instructors the opportunity to strategically and intentionally engage students in acquiring knowledge and practicing strategies for effective reading and critical thinking
Critical Reading Prompted by Inquiry
bull Having a clear purpose for the reading
bull Allocating attention to important rather than trivial content in this case content related to the inquiry or problem at hand
bull Identifying patterns
bull Forming testing and verifying predictions inferences and conclusions
bull Critically evaluating contentevidence for bias internal consistency and compatibility with prior knowledge
bull Considering and evaluating counterexamples
bull Applying new knowledge broadly in this case to respond to the inquiry
Reading Apprenticeship Supporting Inquiring Minds
bull Reading Apprenticeship a research-based instructional framework creates a partnership of expertise between the teacher and students drawing on what content area teachers know and do as skilled discipline-based readers and on learnersrsquo unique and often underestimated strengths
bull RA provides a way to seamlessly integrate reading and writing instruction
bull Embedding RA into an inquiry-based class empowers the students ldquoto figure things outrdquo
bull Embedding RA allows instructors to see and hear how students are thinking and learning
RA Inquiry-Based Instruction
bull Reading is a problem-solving activity
bull Students and their instructors engage in inquiries about how they make meaning from texts
bull Thinking is made visible extending opportunities for inquiry and effective instructional intervention
Dimensions of Reading Apprenticeship
Three Key RA Routines
Reading Apprenticeship routines engage students in the four dimensionsmdashpersonal social cognitive and knowledge buidingmdashby sparking and sustaining metacognitive conversation RA routines allow students and instructors to make their thinking visible
bull Think Aloudbull Talk to the Textbull Metacognitive Logs
The Metacognitive Funnel
Developing Studentsrsquo Reading Reasoning and Writing Handguns Inquirybull Think Aloud A Reading Apprenticeship routine to help
students develop skills or strategies for dealing with data in order to say or write something about the data
bull The inquiry prompt Carefully examine the information on gun-related violence and come to a conclusion on whether handguns should be banned or licensed in the United States on a national basis
Practicing Think Aloud with the Handguns Inquiry
bull Model Think Aloudbull Provide Guided Practice (Think Pair Share)bull Debrief
Opening a window into our thinking
bull What did my partner or I dobull Where did my partner or I do itbull How did that affect our reading and understanding
What does a Reading Apprenticeship Classroom Look Like
bull A focus on comprehension and metacognitive conversation
bull A climate of collaboration
bull An emphasis on student access equity and independence
bull One will see
bull Modeling by the instructor
bull Guided practice for the students
bull Lots of talk among the students and between the students and
instructor about how they are making meaning from a text 20
RA in a CNA Class
bull Pam Butterfield at Renton Technical College has embedded Reading Apprenticeship into her Certified Nursing Assistant Class In this brief clip students write a Metacognitive Log to support their learning from their text
bull As you watch this video keep your own Metacognitive Log On the left in the ldquoEvidencerdquo column write what strikes you as you view the video On the right in the ldquoInterpretationrdquo column expand upon what struck you If you notice the students engaging in inquiry and ldquofiguring things outrdquo make a note of that

Success Reading Apprenticeshipbull ldquoOverall Reading Apprenticeship comes in many forms and shapes
Instructors use it in different ways and community colleges have provided varying levels of support However when it is fully understood and incorporated into developmental courses in genuine ways RA changes the ways that classes are conducted and helps instructors move away from remedial pedagogy to more active and more student-focused classes and more sophisticated analysis of texts appropriate for college-level coursework We think it deserves greater consideration in community colleges as one way to address the inadequate reading preparation of students in ways that are consistent with the efforts to prepare them for college-level work rdquo -W Norton Grubb et al ldquoInnovation in Developmental Education The Landscape and the Locus of Changerdquo 49
RA Student OutcomesInstructors who have embedded Reading Apprenticeship into their classes report such positive outcomes as
bull More reading with increased engagement and confidence
bull Stronger writingbull Development of a range of strategies to support
comprehensionbull Higher levels of interaction between and among
teachers and studentsbull Increased retention 23
Success Inquiry Pedagogy and Writingbull ldquoInquiry focuses the attention of students on strategies
for dealing with sets of data strategies that will be used in writingrdquo
bull In the readingwriting classroom inquiry coupled with sentence combining and scales are ldquoapproaches to writing instruction [that are] more effective [than the writing-as-process model] hellipOn the average these treatments are nearly four times more effective than free writing and over two-and-a-half times more powerful than the traditional study of model pieces of writingrdquo

What is Inquiry in the ReadingWriting Classroom
bull Inquiry is an instructional focus that engages students in activities to help them develop skills or strategies for dealing with data in order to say or write something about the data (Hillocks)
bull The data appear in the ldquotextsrdquo students are reading or viewing
bull The inquiry is posed in a prompt
bull Students develop knowledge and cognitive strategies for effective reading and analysis as they develop responses to the inquiry
Developing Inquiry Prompts in the ReadingWriting Classroom
bull Present students with sets of data about a controversial situation
bull The data should include information about the controversy and various perspectives on the controversy
bull The prompt should ask students to support an argument or a recommendation to resolve the controversy or at least to move forward on it
Adapted from George Hillocks ldquoWhat Works in Written Compositionrdquo
Examples of Inquiry Promptsbull Adapted from a study by Lynn Troyka cited in Hillocks
You are a legislative analyst for a member of the city council and have been asked to write a position paper on the problem of pollution in our small coastal community and how it affects our tourist trade
Consider the statement of the problem and the views presented by
-the conservationist concerned about the balance of nature in the
area
-the executive of the chemical plant responsible for the pollution
-the unemployed male hoping to be hired at the chemical plant
-the member of the Department of Environmental Conservation
responsible for working out a compromise
Then write a recommendation for the position the city council member should take on this issue Support your argument
Another Inquiry Prompt
bull From Robinsonrsquos Texts and Contexts
Carefully examine the information above on gun-related violence and come to a conclusion on whether handguns should be banned or licensed in the United States on a national basis
Traits of Inquiry Promptsbull Inquiry prompts refer students to the data which may appear
in the textbook in videos in interviews on the internet in workplace observations etc
bull The data are limited That is the information students have to work with is sufficient to allow ldquostudents to concentrate on the strategies of formulating and supporting generalizations predicting and countering other arguments and so forth without being overwhelmedhelliprdquo (Hillocks)
bull Inquiry prompts afford instructors the opportunity to strategically and intentionally engage students in acquiring knowledge and practicing strategies for effective reading and critical thinking
Critical Reading Prompted by Inquiry
bull Having a clear purpose for the reading
bull Allocating attention to important rather than trivial content in this case content related to the inquiry or problem at hand
bull Identifying patterns
bull Forming testing and verifying predictions inferences and conclusions
bull Critically evaluating contentevidence for bias internal consistency and compatibility with prior knowledge

Reading Apprenticeship Supporting Inquiring Minds
bull Reading Apprenticeship a research-based instructional framework creates a partnership of expertise between the teacher and students drawing on what content area teachers know and do as skilled discipline-based readers and on learnersrsquo unique and often underestimated strengths

Traits of Inquiry Promptsbull Inquiry prompts refer students to the data which may appear
in the textbook in videos in interviews on the internet in workplace observations etc
bull The data are limited That is the information students have to work with is sufficient to allow ldquostudents to concentrate on the strategies of formulating and supporting generalizations predicting and countering other arguments and so forth without being overwhelmedhelliprdquo (Hillocks)
bull Inquiry prompts afford instructors the opportunity to strategically and intentionally engage students in acquiring knowledge and practicing strategies for effective reading and critical thinking
Critical Reading Prompted by Inquiry
bull Having a clear purpose for the reading
bull Allocating attention to important rather than trivial content in this case content related to the inquiry or problem at hand
bull Identifying patterns
bull Forming testing and verifying predictions inferences and conclusions
bull Critically evaluating contentevidence for bias internal consistency and compatibility with prior knowledge
bull Considering and evaluating counterexamples
bull Applying new knowledge broadly in this case to respond to the inquiry
Reading Apprenticeship Supporting Inquiring Minds
bull Reading Apprenticeship a research-based instructional framework creates a partnership of expertise between the teacher and students drawing on what content area teachers know and do as skilled discipline-based readers and on learnersrsquo unique and often underestimated strengths
