Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning-POGIL
POGIL is a teaching pedagogy that helps empower and engage student to learn. In the POGIL classroom the teacher acts as a guide or coach. The students work in small groups or teams to complete activities and projects. POGIL is simply a student centered group learning instructional strategy and philosophy developed through research on the way students learn best. In the classroom students take control of their own learning. The learning skill that students develop consist of information processing, communication, team work, critical thinking, problem solving, management, and assessment. Is the POGIL classroom effective for student learning? The answer to this question is Yes. Research has shown that students have responded in a positive way to the POGIL approach. It's effectiveness has been assessed by some top notch institutions. Because of POGIL student/teacher are actively engaged in an environment where they can share their ideas and progressively work through the problems together to achieve their goals. Feedback is a very important part of the POGIL pedagogy. Instant and constant feedback helps the learning process for everyone involved. I believe that more and more schools will see the positive effects of POGIL and decide to take the chance and try the POGIL approach. The POGIL Pedagogy is a teaching approach of our near future.
