I would agree with Beryl. We received a grant through NSF/NASA funded
ESSEA to produce an online professional development course for informal
educators, and will start our first course in a couple weeks. Our goal
was to produce inquiry-based education, and the book Beryl mentions was
instrumental in getting our heads around this.
