Continued interest in the inclusion of inquiry-based learning (IBL) in our curricula means we are always looking for good examples of how this can be applied in practice. This book presents a series of case studies on the integration of IBL at college and university level. While none are specific to chemistry, there is much to learn from implementations in other disciplines and across disciplines.

Michael Seery reviews Inquiry-based learning for multidisciplinary programs and considers how it could be used by curriculum designers and programme leaders.
