Experience the roles, teamwork, and process skills that engage students and improve content mastery and retention. Appropriate for middle school, high school, and college/university science instructors, Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) is a research-based instructional strategy that seeks to simultaneously incorporate the Performance Expectations, SEPs, and CCCs of the NGSS.
