Guided Inquiry Learning with Technology (GILT)

Guided Inquiry Learning with Technology (GILT) is a web platform to support POGIL-style approaches, particularly in large, virtual, and/or hybrid settings. GILT has been piloted since 2020 at multiple universities, mostly in computing and chemistry courses.

  • Student teams access POGIL-style activities anonymously via a browser.
    • Models can be static or dynamic (e.g., interactive graphics, simulations, live code).
    • Questions can be text, multiple choice, or numeric sliders.
  • Instructors can monitor team progress.
    • Team responses can be visualized in tables, bar or pie graphs, word trees, and other ways.
    • Team progress can be visualized in dashboards (see examples below).
