Part 4- Inquiry question
After choosing a career/pathway you would like to focus on, it is time to think deeper about what the
career would be like. You will research what a day in the life of the job might be and then create 3 open
ended questions that relate to the career and you are interested in finding the answers to. In the next
course, CLC, you will pick one of these questions to base your final graduation capstone project on.
For example:
o if you are interested in health care, you may want to explore the topic of nutrition.
o if you are interested in software development, you may want to explore the question of user experience.
o If you are interested in psychology, you may want to explore mental health in the workplace.

Inquiry is about need to know the answer to a question, or researching a question where the answer has
consequences (a possible career choice, or area of post-secondary study – or could influence the pathway of your
life)

2. List the things that you are most interested in, within this field:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
3. Name the things you are most curious about – you do not have the answers for
these “wonderings”
1)
2)
3)
4. Now let’s try to establish three excellent INQUIRY questions based the following ideas:
This is something that you are interested in and have wondered about.
The question is open to research – you will have to investigate the answer through research
You really don’t know the answer – you are looking to gain new knowledge, rather than confirm
something you are already sure about.
It is a good thing if the question can be answered through multiple answers – not a simple yes/no, -
questions should examine the “why” rather than the “what”, why tends to lead to explanations
The question is clearly focused and reasonable
Make sure you can define all the terms in your question: what does “latest” in this type of technology
mean, or “most recent” mean
Your question will lead to even more questions: it will trigger new questions and more curiosities.
Having the right answer matters to you!
