Structure S4.4: Asks students to generate their own explanations and justify their thinking

Practices

  • Ask “why” to help students think critically  
  • In a lab or project report, ask students to predict “what will happen” if the conditions changes, and to explain their prediction  
  • Employ peer instruction, an activity in which students respond to a multiple-choice question individually, discuss their answers in pairs or small groups, respond to the initial question again, and finally discuss answers as a whole class.
