1. Requirements of the Primary Science Curriculum
Scientific inquiryScientific inquiry is defined as
“…the activities and processes which scientists and students engage in to study the natural and physical world around us.” (MOE, 2008, p.11)
Your students are expected to…
1. ask questions w.r.t. daily life, society & environment 2. collect and use evidences 3. formulate and communicate explanations
Demonstration

1. Requirements of the Primary Science Curriculum
MOE, 2008, p.11-12
Please refer to the handout given.
Use all or several of the essential features of science as inquiry in your lessons…
Structure your approach towards the left of the table…GRADUALLYGRADUALLY (to meet the needs of your students)

1. Requirements of the Primary Science Curriculum
Inquiry lessons are to involve…
1.hands-on learning, from concrete to abstract2.situate learning in realistic (authentic) contexts
… so design learning activities that require active engagements of students to DODO something that relates to their REAL LIFE REAL LIFE experiences…

1. Requirements of the Primary Science Curriculum
MOE, 2008, p.15. Read also the misconceptions on science inquiry lessons

2. Objectives of this session
Now that you are aware of the MOE’s requirements… let’s look at what else we can do…
1. Is science inquiry really that difficult & scary??
2. What are the known approaches of science inquiry?
3. The 5E Learning model…one possible approach.
4. What others have done using the 5E model…
5. What I can try (to do or to find out) with students

3. What is Science Inquiry?
Is science inquiry really that difficult & scary??
List your concerns here: How we can overcome:

4. Approaches to Science Inquiry
Three possible approaches…
1.The generative learning model (Osbourne & Freyberg, 1985)
2.The interactive model (Faire & Cosgrove, 1988)
3.The 5E model (Australian Academy Science, 1994; 2005).

Origins of BSCS 5E Instructional Model
• Traced back to early 20th century• Begins with the works of Johann Herbart on
philosophy and psychology• Psychology of learning can be synthesized into an
instructional model based on students’ current knowledge and their new ideas
- connections between prior knowledge and new knowledge form ideas
• Teacher explains ideas that students did not discover• Teacher provides opportunities for students to
demonstrate their understanding
![Page 16: ACS301 Assessment Modes and Resource Management in Primary Science Introduction to](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5681520b550346895dc04d45/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Who developed the 5E Model?
• Developed by the Biological Science Curriculum Study (BSCS)• Led by Principal Investigator Rodger Bybee, who developed
the model for constructivism• The team then called the model “Five Es”• Other models have been adapted from this model including 6E
and 7E models
![Page 17: ACS301 Assessment Modes and Resource Management in Primary Science Introduction to](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5681520b550346895dc04d45/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The 5E Learning model
The BSCS, 5E Model for Inquiry-based Learning (Bybee, 2002)
![Page 18: ACS301 Assessment Modes and Resource Management in Primary Science Introduction to](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081520/5681520b550346895dc04d45/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Effectiveness of 5E Model
• Rests on foundation of contemporary research on student learning
• Expose students to a subject domain that arise naturally in problem situations
• Activities are structured in a way that students are able to explore, explain, extend and evaluate their progress
• Ideas are best explained when students see a need or a reason for their use
- see relevant uses of their knowledge to make sense of what they are learning

Applications of 5E Model
• State science frameworks
- outline science expectations for student achievement in science
- include content standard and benchmarks
- assessment, models of instructions, professional development, role of technology
• Institutes of higher education—general courses, teacher education
• Curriculum (e.g. textbooks, units, modules)• Specific lesson plans• Informal education (e.g., museums, media)• Professional development opportunities• Non-science disciplines

Classroom Case Studies-Teaching Science as Inquiry
Based on Classroom 1 to 6, briefly describe the case scenario and identify if inquiry is used as a teaching tool in the classroom. Why?
