Curiosity

Curiosity is the quality that allows students to dig deeper, and manifests itself in a desire to know more and more about the world.  Students and thinkers who adopt the posture of curiosity ask “why” and “how” a machine, text, or phenomenon works the way it does and came into being, and move beyond mere observation.  Moreover, curious learners and educators care more about what is yet to be learned than what learning can be demonstrated, and engage the world with a sense of wonder and awe that leads to new inquiries and new discoveries.
