The purpose of this research was to analyze inquiry process, activity and type ofscience high school students that appeared in open-inquiry. For this research, we analyzed 107 inquiry-subject from 214 students of science high school, and classified them based on SAPA II by usingstudent-inquiry treatise plan, inquiry activity journal and final report. As a result of the research, thefactors of basic and integrated inquiry skills are not equally included in students' inquiry tasks. There isno notable difference of basic inquiry skills according to subject, but considerable difference ofintegrated inquiry skills is identified. Inquiry activity is classified into experiment, experiment withoutcontrolling variables and survey. Inquiry with integrated context is very rare. Based on the results ofanalyses of inquiry skill and activity, we identified four different types of open-inquiry. Implications ofenhancing open-inquiry to authentic inquiry are also discussed.
