For my free inquiry project, I have chosen to research and explore the power of habits. I chose the power of habits because I am curious about the habit formation process and if forming new habits is as life-changing authors James Clear and Charles Duhigg describe it to be. Habits have become more heavily researched within the last five years, drawing on the neurological processes inside the brain when habit formation occurs. Studies show that 40-95% of our behaviours comprise our habits.
Throughout this inquiry project, I will delve into my habits and reflect on what changes I want to make to be healthier and happier. I will use my research and findings to develop habits I want to acquire. To habit track, I will use Habit, which I downloaded from the app store on my cellular device.
At the end of this inquiry project, I hope to have developed my new habits and find ways to incorporate my knowledge into a classroom so that students can form habits that can benefit themselves as people throughout all aspects of their lives.
Below is a screenshot of my Trello board that I will be using to organize my ideas, thoughts, and tasks on the power of habits free inquiry project.
