<p><div>Designed to foster "inquiry-mindedness," this book prepares graduate students to develop a conceptual framework and conduct inquiry projects that are linked to ongoing conversations in a field. The authors examine different ways of knowing and show how to identify a research question; build arguments and support them with evidence; make informed design decisions; engage in reflective, ethical practices; and produce a written proposal or report. Each chapter opens with a set of critical questions, followed by a dialogue among five fictional graduate students exploring questions and concerns about their own inquiry projects; these issues are revisited throughout the chapter. Other useful features include end-of-chapter learning activities for individual or group use.</div><div> </div><div>Useful pedagogical features include:</div><div>*Framing questions for exploration and reflection.</div><div>*Chapter-opening dialogues that bring in perspectives from multiple disciplines.</div><div>*Example boxes with detailed cases and questions for the reader.</div><div>*End-of-chapter activities and experiential exercises that guide readers to develop their own inquiry projects.</div><div>*Suggestions for further reading.</div></p>
