This lesson harnesses an untapped resource, student curiosity and the questions that they develop about the scientific world they live in. To foster curiosity and question asking, I have created an implementation method surrounding a curriculum unit that brings small groups of students together who use their questions to build knowledge and understanding about the way their world works, referred to as Knowledge Building (Scardamalia, 2002) Knowledge Building (KB) was implemented as a 5 stage process.
