We were assigned to work with a partner to create a Treasure Hunt that will teach colleagues/teachers about Inquiry Based Learning of the Information Processing Model. In Inquiry Based Learning, the teacher presents a problem to students and they have to come up with their own solutions. In this Treasure Hunt, the benefits of Inquiry Based Learning are explored as well as how inquiry based learning develops students' critical and creative thinking.
This was the first Treasure Hunt that I created and I really enjoyed working with my partner on it. I like the concept of a the Treasure Hunt, as it provides a different way to the teach/learn model. Instead of just receiving notes or looking up facts on each different methods of teachings, each group was responsible for one method. It was a great way to collaborate and put together valuable resources we discovered. I enjoyed browsing my classmates' Treasure Hunts and seeing the different ways they put it together. In the future, I will definitely incorporate treasure hunts in my classroom, depending on the grade level. They offer a fun and innovative approach to teaching.
Please check out my Treasure Hunt and let me know what you think! Feedback is greatly appreciated!
