Our Vision... At The POGIL Project, we believe every student deserves an education that prepares them to think critically, solve problems, work with others, and experience the joy of discovery. What is POGIL? POGIL stands for Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning, a learning approach where student teams work together to construct their own understanding of content while developing skills such as critical thinking, teamwork, problem-solving, and communication, now recognized as essential for success in school, and highly-valued by employers. What sets POGIL apart... What sets POGIL apart is its focus on the development of key skills combined with the deep, meaningful learning that happens in a POGIL classroom environment. Time and again, we hear teachers say they could never go back to lecturing after seeing how well students learn with the POGIL approach.
