[0] Connections ["Experimenting with INQ"] “Real-world” questions, interdisciplinary connections, or ethical issues are mentioned but are not central to discussions. ["More Fully INQ"] 
An identifiable effort is made to get students to understand the connections between the content of the course and the "bigger picture". When possible, (and acknowledging that in some disciplines, this is harder to do than in others) student investigations are motivated by “real-world” questions and/or ethical issues. Both common and complementary elements of other disciplines' approaches to inquiry and/or content are made clear. These connections are an essential element in at least some major aspect(s) of the course.
