OVERVIEW: SCHOOL SYSTEM IN GERMANY
1. TEACHING METHODS
• Depends on federal state - Example: Baden-Wuerttemberg
• School year 1 - 4: primary schoolSchool year 5 - 12: secondary school
• Secondary school divided into three performance levels:1) for low achieving students2) for middle merit students3) for high performers (Gymnasium, university qualification)
• New Law: Parents can decide by themselveswhich school level their child should visit→ Nearly all students are sent to level 3.

OVERVIEW: SCHOOL SYSTEM IN GERMANY
1. TEACHING METHODS
• New challenge for teachers on level 3:Students with different levels of performance in one class
• Typical standard lessons where all students do the same are not meaningful
• Teachers need another pedagogy:- individual student facilitation- flexible methods and tasks

2. EXAMPLES FROM THE CLASSROOM
WHY I USE IBL IN MY CLASSROOM (1/2):
• Every student can work on an IBL task with his individual:previous knowledge, expertise, learning approach, needs…
• IBL promotes students' individual curiosity and engagement
• Every student achieves aresult and experiences success
![Page 24: Inquiry-based learning in physics and maths classes, Patrick Bronner](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052412/5596da671a28abd56a8b45be/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
www.mascil.ph-freiburg.de23.10.2014
2. EXAMPLES FROM THE CLASSROOM
WHY I USE IBL IN MY CLASSROOM (2/2):
• Students get through presentations (talks, posters) different experimental ideas and learn from each other
• Students evaluate each other and get a feeling for quality
→ IBL is well suited for mixed-performance level classes
![Page 25: Inquiry-based learning in physics and maths classes, Patrick Bronner](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052412/5596da671a28abd56a8b45be/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

2. EXAMPLES FROM THE CLASSROOM
MY PROBLEMS WITH IBL:
• Difficult to find suitable IBL tasks
• Students are not used to it
• IBL takes a lot of time
• IBL is not part of the final exam
→ I was supported in teaching IBL from the EU projects Primas and mascil
