In Inquiry Illuminated, Anne Goudvis, Stephanie Harvey, and classroom teacher Brad Buhrow shine a light on researcher's workshop--an approach whose true north emerges from kids' curiosity. Adapting structures you already know from reader's and writer's workshop, they share a predictable, proven, and--most importantly--authentic approach that: creates irresistible investigations in science, history and social studies, or language arts increases students' independence and agency by gradually releasing responsibility for inquiry effectively integrates literacy and content through strategies for comprehension and critical thinking. With copious full-color photographs and classroom video, Inquiry Illuminated shows how to create a culture where thoughtfulness, creativity, and collaboration can turn wonder into powerful inquiry.

Wonder without inquiry is like a mere spark in the darkness. Read Inquiry Illuminated and find out how to light up the possibilities for your learners. "This book is a great resource for an educator or district looking to expand their work inside the Workshop model, or even enhance their social studies and science curriculum.... It would be a good investment for teachers and administrators looking to innovate in their schools." --Andrea Doyon, Middleweb Read the entire review

Electronic Light Dimmers - Index Sound recording studios are often built like showcases, either to attract clientele or to provide a distinctive image for the industry. They are, thus, like people, in that no two of them are alike. Yet, all such structures have to have certain common acoustic elements if they are to function to the best artistic and economic advantages. The enclosures must be sufficiently quiet, exhibit proper reverberatory conditions (often required to be adjustable), be devoid of parallelisms between hard surfaces, have no sound-focusing concave surfaces, be free of vibrations from external and internal sources, etc. It is for the purpose of providing first design principles of sound recording studios that this book has been prepared, so that for any given size structure, satisfactory vocal and instrumental recording conditions can be established therein. All equations involving physical quantities are given both in the English and the MKS system of measurement. Also, when the description of existing studios includes linear dimensions, their metric equivalents follow in parenthesis, as is also done for such quantities as surface density (mass per unit area) and sound absorption.
