1.
Process of using THEORY observations to develop general principles about a TENTATIVE
specific subject. HYPOTHESIS Conclusion is likely based on premises Involves a degree of
PATTERN uncertainty also referred to as the scientific OBSERVATION method
2. Statethe Question Make Observations Form a Hypothesis Test Analyze Draw a
Conclusion
3. any instruction that begins with a challenge and accomplish the desired learning in the
process of responding to it challenge may come in the form of a question that needs an answer,
observation or data set to be interpreted, or hypotheses to be tested
4. students are presented with a challenge and left to work out the solution on their own uses
trial and error guided discovery
5. students are confronted with an ill- structured, authentic (real-world) problem to solve
usually in teams emphasis not on a correct answer but on investigative process
6. Students are presented with an assignment that requires that they design or produce a
deliverable. The final product may be a formal written or oral presentation of their processes and
outcomes. Project-based learning can be assigned to individuals or teams. Unlike problem-based
learning, this style of inductive learning provides the student with the necessary background
knowledge and is focused more on the solution.
7. Students are presented with real-life scenarios, or cases, in which they hypothetically assume
various roles. The cases tend to be very well structured filled with elaborate details to incorporate
many of the variables real-life problems contain. Students learn to apply material that has already
been covered in class and is somewhat familiar. Case-based learning can be assigned to individual
students or to teams. Studies have shown that case-based instruction significantly improves
student retention, reasoning and problem-solving skills and higher-order skills on Bloom's
taxonomy.
8. Students are presented with conceptual questions at the beginning of class. These questions
are usually done in an electronic or web-based mode so they can be accessed immediately. The
teacher then uses the findings of that exam to adjust the lesson and address misconceptions the
students may have about the subject content. This method is classified as inductive because the
students are being asked questions about material they have not yet studied. This method is used
primarily in higher education.
9. The learners are more engaged in the teaching-learning process with our facilitating skills, the
learners formulate the generalization. Learning becomes more interesting at the outset because
we begin with what they know It helps the development of our learner’s higher-order-thinking-
skills (HOTS). To see and analyze the same in order to arrive at generalizations requires analytical
thinking.
10. Itrequires more time and so less subject matter will be covered. It needs much time to lead
students to the formulation of generalizations. Itdemands expert facilitating skills on part of the
teacher. He/she needs to ask the right questions and organize answers.
11. Usingthe inductive method, the teacher presents the students with a specific challenge or
problem, such as an experiment that needs to be interpreted, or a real-world problem that needs to
be solved. The students must then use their base-knowledge to investigate, test, analyze and come
to their own conclusion or solution. The inductive method, which is commonly interpreted in
schools as the scientific method is widely used as a guide for observation and inquiry based
learning.
12. The inductive method is an extremely effective process for obtaining general, observation-
based information about the world. The inductive method is one of the most common and
natural forms of making logical assumptions about what we observe. It allows us to gather ideas
about an infinite number of events or phenomena in real life. It guide students through critical
thinking, awareness, evaluation of what they observe, and the drawing of logical conclusions.
