• System Analysis- students have opportunities to study systems such as computer network
systems, ecosystems, government systems, or weather systems.
• Invention- this process involves hypothesizing what could work, developing the idea, and
testing the invention.
• Experimental Inquiry-students can explain observations, generate explanations, make and
test predictions.
• Problem Solving-this requires students to understand obstacles and constraints. They
generate and test hypotheses about possible solutions.
• Decision Making- this requires students to use a broad range of knowledge to develop
criteria and test their predictions against these criteria.
• Historical Investigation-students must use their understanding of a past situation and key
players in an event to generate a hypothesis. To do this they must collect and analyze
information to determine if evidence will support it.
How it applies to us as educators:
• Students can apply the strategy of generating and testing a hypothesis to
• Stories they are reading in language arts class
• Historical stories, stories about inventors
• To a current event they are discussing in social studies class
• System analysis, historical investigation
• To an historical event they are learning about in history class.
Generating and testing a hypothesis requires several cognitive skills that help students learn,
analyze, apply, and evaluate information in many different content areas.
