• Being faced with a problem to solve forces one to inquire about the circumstances of that problem and source the content that will enable them to identify, test and select solutions. The modern term for this approach is inquiry-based learning, in other words learning through discovery. As a part of the Commission for Financial Literacy and Retirement Income's Money Week 2012, the AUT Business School's Auckland Centre for Financial Research co-hosted a financial literacy symposium where it presented research findings on the relationship between financial literacy and financial decision making. The study demonstrated that it is not necessarily the case that improvements in financial literacy lead to better decision making, but that this relationship is actually the other way around, through the decision-making process, people acquire more financial literacy.
