What is concept-based inquiry, and why is it a powerful form of pedagogy? How does it respond to the opportunities and challenges of the 21st century? In this session, we will discuss the attributes of concept-based inquiry as a form of pedagogy that intentionally builds student understanding. We will explore what it looks like in the classroom by viewing images and videos of practice. We will also examine how concept-based inquiry can support both communicative competence and deep understanding in the language classroom.
