"Within the framework of a Problem-Based Learning approach a simplified model for inquiry, called FISh, has been developed (Nerantzi and Uhlin, 2012). We suggest the use of FISh when working collaboratively with inquiry into scenarios in each topic. Even if you learn autonomously or with a learning buddy, FISh might help you as a structure for your learning process. However, remember that learning is messy and following or restricting yourself to a linear process might not work and can be frustrating at times."

I have registered for The Open Learning Network MOOC #OLN151 which has commenced today, 14 April. The design of this open course uses a wonderfully simplified approach to PBL inquiry called FISh (Nerantzi and Uhlin, 2012).
Take a look a the #OLN151 webpage to read about the three step FISh approach - FOCUS, INVESTIGATE and SHARE - each step driven by guiding questions. Really nice approach to apply in your own learning design for students.
"Step 1: Focus
What do I/we see?
How do I/we understand what we see?
What do I/we need to find out more about?
Specify learning issues/intended learning outcomes!
Step 2: Investigate
How and where am I/are we going to find answers?
What will I do/who will do what and by when?
What main findings and solutions do I/we propose?
Step 3: Share
How am I/are we going to present my/our findings?
What do I/we want to share with the community?
How can I/we provide feedback to others?
What reflections do I have about my learning (and working with others)?"
