Inquiry in Practice: Bringing IDMs to Life equips secondary Social Studies teachers with the tools and strategies to implement state-provided Inquiry Design Models (IDMs) in the classroom. This session focuses on practical approaches to facilitating inquiry—from launching compelling questions to guiding students through document analysis, discussion, and evidence-based writing. Participants will explore ways to adapt IDMs to fit their students’ needs, manage time effectively, and foster deeper engagement with historical thinking.
