Abstract:
The paper deals with the experience of the authors in promoting the Inquiry Based
Learning (IBL) in mathematics and science education within international and national
projects. The emphasis is on in-service teacher education. Various types of activities and
resources in support of all levels of IBL are considered, e.g. professional development
courses, seminars, workshop, and performances; implementation of resources stimulating
students to behave like working mathematicians. The first visible positive effects and potential
problems in the implementation of IBL in the Bulgarian schools are discussed.
