 Share ideas with multiple audiences
 Negotiate effectively
 Plan strategies and take action to achieve personal and
academic goals
 Develop new skills, techniques and strategies for effective
learning
 Identify strengths and weaknesses of personal learning
strategies (self-assessment)
 Collect and analyse data to identify solutions and make informed
decisions
 Evaluate and select information sources and digital tools based
on their appropriateness to specific tasks
 Apply existing knowledge to generate new ideas, products or
processes
 Use appropriate strategies for organizing complex information
 Analyse complex concepts and projects into their constituent
parts and synthesize them to create new understanding

Which skills are common across the types of inquiry?


Common skills I would say would include those relevant to organizing
information and collecting data. Mostly meta cognitive such as:

 Apply existing knowledge to generate new ideas, products or


processes
 Negotiate ideas and knowledge with peers and teachers
 Collect and analyse data to identify solutions and make informed
