Inquiry-Based Instruction and Teaching About Nature of Science: Are They Happening? (2013, background): “Finally, some articles gave anecdotal accounts (e.g., Lord and Orkwiszewski 2006; Radford 1998; Wells 1995) or cited the anecdotal accounts of others (e.g., Windschitl 2002) when commenting on the lack of inquiry-based teaching.”
Discipline-Based Education Research: Understanding and Improving Learning in Undergraduate Science and Engineering. (2012, background): “Although the committee has characterized the strength of the findings as limited, the evidence from biology education research suggests that when compared with traditional laboratory exercises, inquiry-based laboratories can improve students’ learning and their shortterm retention of biology content”
Enhanced Learning of Biotechnology Students by an Inquiry-Based Cellulase Laboratory. (2010, background): “These findings corroborated many research studies, e.g., of Lord and Orkwiszewski (2006) who implemented the inquiry laboratory approach to college students in introductory biology course.”
