Wallwisher: an online wonder wall

 * What do I think I know?
 * What do I want to find out?

Present question and ask students to write down as many words that they can think of related to that question. (individual or group) Use Google Docs/ Etherpad/ Email to collect all words and put into Wordle to create a visual of brainstorming session. Words vary in size related to how often a student has used them in their brainstorm. For example, most students wrote energy, earth, resources... as their keywords.
 * Brainstorming**

Keywords can then be used to create questions related to the Inquiry (see Focus on Inquiry 2nd ed pg74)
