At Campus International we cultivate curiosity. According to the IB, an inquirer "nurtures curiosity, developing skills for inquiry and research. We know how to learn independently and with others. We learn with enthusiasm and sustain our love of learning throughout life."
We recognized and celebrated inquirers at morning meetings. These K-2 inquirers are described as, "curious about the world around them and always eager to learn more by asking great questions."
"Continuing to ask questions and dig deeper into her research."
They "have a lot of wonders on the wonder wall" according to classmates.
In Grades 3-5, students noticed that Inquirers "take questions a step further.”
Have the "courage to ask questions when they don't understand something."
"When something doesn’t work out, they keep trying"
In MYP, Inquirers take it to the next level.
They "frequently ask questions, including revisiting ideas that have just been discussed, showing commitment to thorough understanding to many math concepts"
They are "always interested in why things happen and is willing to figure things out."
They "remain curious, making connections between content, which ultimately results in their understanding of the Math concepts we are learning."
They are "Willing to engage in discussions to help them learn and are not afraid of research to dive deeper into a topic.
