Argument-Driven Inquiry (ADI) is a teaching approach where students investigate scientific phenomena, construct arguments based on evidence, and engage in scientific discourse. It emphasizes critical thinking, evidence-based reasoning, and collaboration, fostering a deeper understanding of scientific concepts.
We provide comprehensive programs comprising books, classroom resources, and professional learning opportunities for teachers. Our materials cater to grades K-12, empowering students to explore core scientific, mathematical, or engineering concepts. Through inquiry-based learning, students develop problem-solving skills to understand phenomena and devise solutions for real-world challenges.
