Inquiry Training Model and Guided Discovery Learning for Fostering Critical Thinking and Scientific Attitude

By SMITHA V.P.

Inquiry Training Model and Guided Discovery Learning are two teaching approaches that are known to promote critical thinking in students. This is a quasi experimental study to find their relative effectiveness in promoting critical thinking, scientific attitude and science achievement. This book describes the two approaches and also discusses critical thinking and scientific attitude in detail. It was found that both these approaches are equally effective and better than the conventional classroom lecture method in science education.
