Abstract
Static models are typically the simplest form available for describing some aspects of the real world, although one should not let their simplicity fool you. Even in a static model there are plenty of opportunities for errors to develop.
The Scaffold Approach
Inquiry Based Learning
Develops students' understanding of the natural world.
- The students are making static models of the natural world
Strengthens students' knowledge of the scientific way of knowing — the use of systematic observation and experimentation to develop theories and test hypotheses.
- Students will define a new framework for describing their environment in a static model.
Emphasizes and provides first-hand experience with both theoretical analysis and the collection of empirical data.
- Again, the students are collecting data and developing an effective way to represent that data to describe a physical space.
