It is a hot subject of educational reform of our country that information technology and curriculum are integrated. At present, domestic and international research regarding the integration of information technology and curriculum has already made certain achievement, however, the research on integration of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum, still few.Inquiry learning curriculum, regards problems as carriers, creating a kind of scientific research -like situation, let learners experience the production process of knowledge actually by collecting, analyzing and dealing with information by themselves, and then understand the society, learn to study, train learners' ability to problem-analyzing, problem-solving and creativity. Integration of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum, can take full advantage of information technology to promote teaching and learning, thus better improve the efficiency of teaching and learning, improve teaching and learning effectiveness. Because inquiry learning curriculum is still at exploring and pilot stage at present, to further investigation of this problem, have certain foresightedness. In addition, the problem that how to integrate inquiry learning curriculum and information technology to achieve optimal teaching effect, has not has a clear, effective solutions, therefore, the research of the integration of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum has some realistic meanings.To realize the integration of the information technology and inquiry learning curriculum, the measure that can be taken and problems concerned are many. Because each researcher pay close attention to different aspect of the problem, understanding different perspectives, produce different research approach, that lead to the difference of research fields for the information technology and inquiry learning curriculum integration research. The author thinks, to promote the integration of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum, and especially exert a beneficial influence on the daily teaching of frontline teachers who engaged in inquiry learning curriculum teaching, subject for research concerned most should be designing a curriculum integration model that can guide the teaching practice of information technology andinquiry learning curriculum integration, which has strong operational simplicity for frontline teachers in the teaching of direct application or accord with the actual needs of the local conditions, revise this model slightly before application, so as to achieve the purpose of instructing practical teaching. Because of this, the author chooses the integration model for information technology and inquiry learning curriculum as research focus.Firstly, the author through domestic and international materials on information technology and curriculum integration and inquiry learning, as well as collecting and reorganizing relevant information, finds this subject for research, and has laid the foundation for further research. The author consults more than two hundred relevant research papers, through the understanding of these materials and digestion, and gradually getting the idea to build a framework of the research subject.Secondly, exhaustively elaborate, differentiate and analyze relatively in relevant concept (information technology, curriculum integration, inquiry learning, and model), combine a large number of domestic and international relevant research results on information technology and curriculum integration and inquiry learning, have put forward the author's own integration model of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum. The proposition of this model is based on induction and deduction, which draws on existing integration model, combing the characteristic and requirements of inquiry learning curriculum. The integration model of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum, mainly include following six stages: Choose the subject ,Confirm the subject, Design proposal, Research the subject, Solve the problem and Reply, Evaluate and Reconsider. In the elaboration to this model, the function of the information technology in every stages of detailed analysis, and has explained the teacher's role and behavior of teacher and learners in every stage specifically, in order to strengthen the feasibility of this model. Moreover, this thesis has also carried on a more detailed elaboration to the integrant part relations, basic structure, the operation sequence, and the evaluation criteria and method of the model, so as to strengthen the flexibility in the teaching practice application.This thesis's main contribution lies in constructing a new integration model of information technology and inquiry learning curriculum. And this model has relatively strong operability, which has certain directive significance as to the integration work of the information technology and inquiry learning curriculum. Hope to play a role tofurther the research of the information technology and inquiry learning curriculum integration.
