they will in turn develop the testable statement. While this may take a
little extra thinking and planning on the teachers part, it allows the
students to become fully involved in their learning and take action. I
have been able to apply this to my unit through the use of experiments
each day. The students will take part in a different experiment at the
end of each lesson. They will be presented with a question about the
content studied that day, and they will have to develop a statement
that can be tested. They will generate ideas with one another, and
they will explore these new concepts and ideas. If a teacher simply
stood at the front of the class lecturing the students about the science
topic, they would not be engaged and would not retain as much
information. Using this argumentation process to challenge students to
think deeper will create a more conducive atmosphere to learning.
