Summary

We start this podcast with an update. Where are we now with FOSIL and inquiry learning? If you want to skip this part and just listen to our focused discussion, please start at 12.09m. We are heading back to the FOSIL Symposium that we ran in Feb this year to discuss something that has been on my mind. David Harrow from AKS Lytham did a presentation about the use of inquiry and particularly FOSIL in his school. There was not much talk about the use of the librarian and it got me wondering… Do schools need a library and a librarian to use FOSIL? We would love to hear your thoughts on this so if you have any please do post a comment. This is a public episode.
