“…Importantly, each role is dependent on the other roles so students are accountable to their peers for the role they play. This group structure creates positive interdependence among the students, reinforcing involvement and learning for each student (Myers et al, 2012).…”

“…POGIL teaches process skills (such as collaboration and written expression) as well as content using an inquiry-based approach (Moog & Spencer, 2008;Myers et al, 2012). Although POGIL employs student-centered techniques, it differs from other approaches in three ways: 1.…”

“…POGIL sessions guide students through an exploration to construct and refine comprehension of the content. (POGIL, 2014) The POGIL method lends itself to the analytical problem solving found in ICT and Computer Science (Myers et al, 2012;Trevathan & Myers, 2013;Trevathan, Myers, & Gray, 2014). POGIL is based on research indicating that:…”

“…Despite this, employers still insist that a key learning objective of ICT graduates is the ability to work in team environments as this mirrors work force requirements (Ahmed et al, 2012;Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency, 2013). Due to this need, group exercises and projects have become an important component of higher education (Blackman, 2012;Friedman, Cox, & Maher, 2008;Myers, Monypenny, & Trevathan, 2012).…”

“…There are two significant challenges that face teaching staff in ICT online learning environments: (1) invoking and maintaining student engagement to ensure comprehension and positive learning outcomes; and (2) the development and progressive growth of "soft skills" throughout their degrees. Due to the need for soft skills, team exercises and projects have become an important component of higher education (Blackman, 2012;Friedman et al, 2008;Myers et al, 2012).…”

A Review of Research on Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning: Implications for Research and Practice

et al. 2020

As a pedagogical approach, process oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) allows students to socially construct knowledge through iterative cycles that include three steps: exploring a model, inventing a concept, and applying the resulting ideas. A growing body of research indicates that relative to lecture-based approaches, POGIL supports student learning more effectively. In this article, we review research related to POGIL, focusing on the nature of the evidence used to evaluate its impact on student learning, as well as trends related to relevant features of the studies, such as theoretical and methodological choices. We find that this body of research has typically focused on quantitative measures that broadly assess student outcomes, with fewer studies concentrating on qualitative, theory-based explanations of student learning. Moreover, key features of POGIL implementation (e.g., theoretical underpinnings, activity structure, process skills, and student roles) remain understudied. On the basis of the review, we propose suggestions for future research and practice.
