SOLE
SOLE Self Organised Learning Environment refers to the adaptation of a school space to facilitate Enquiry Based Learning. A teacher encourages their class to work as a community to answer questions using computers with internet access. The class work around a guiding set of rules: * Students need to form groups of about 4 * Children choose their own groups * They can change groups at any time * Children can look to see what other groups are doing and take that information back to their own group * They should be ready to present their answers back to the class at the end of the session
