PRACTICAL RESEARCH 2

• An inquiry and research are two terms are almost the same in meaning. Both of them involved investigative work and any process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem. A theory of inquiry is an account of the various types of inquiry and a treatment of the ways that each type of inquiry achieves it's aim while research is to discover truths by investigating on your chosen topic scientifically.
• What is Inquiry? Inquiry is a learning process that motivates you to obtain knowledge or information about people, things, places, or events. (Baraceros 2016) It requires you to collect data, meaning, facts, and information about the object of your inquiry, and examine such data carefully. On other hand, in your analysis, you execute varied thinking strategies that range from lower-order to higher-order thinking skills such as inferential, critical, integrative, creative thinking.
• Furthermore, according to Badke cited by Baraceros, solving a problem, especially social issues, does not only involved yourself but other members of the society too. Whatever knowledge you have about the world bears the influence of your cultural, sociological, institutional, or ideological understanding of the world. ( Badke 2012 )
