Real Science is Based on Inquiry!
*Socrates created Inquiry! Socrates was largely invested in his ability to ask his students questions in order for them to learn and discover new findings. There is always exploration and there is no final answer! There are always new answers and knew questions. Methods and strategies of answer searches are always available!

The 5 features of science inquiry (emphasis is mine)
- Learner Engages in Scientifically Oriented Questions
- Learner Gives Priority to Evidence in Responding to Questions
- Learner Formulates Explanations from Evidence
- Learner Connects Explanations to Scientific Knowledge
- Learner Communicates and Justifies Explanations
Steps of Inquiry:
- Formulate a question/problem
- Make predictions (expected results assuming the hypothesis is correct and different predictions if the hypothesis is wrong).
- Design steps to investigate the problem to generate data that will allow you to evaluate the hypothesis.
- Test the hypothesis.
