A more teacher centered approach is a deductive approach to instruction. This means that the teacher brings a new concept to the students, explains it, and then the students practice using the concept. For example, the teacher will introduce the concept when teaching a new grammar concept, explain the rules related to its use, and finally practice the concept in a variety of ways.For example, teaching a particularly difficult concept when dealing with highly motivated students, or preparing students to write exams.
Unlike the deductive method, inductive instruction makes use of "noticing" the student Instead of explaining a given concept and following that explanation with examples, the teacher presents many examples to students showing how the concept is being used. The intention is for the students to "notice" how the concept works by way of examples.Using the grammar situation from above, the teacher would present various examples for a given concept to the students without giving any preamble on how the concept is being used. As students see how the concept is applied, it is hoped that they will notice how to use the concept and determine the rule of grammar. The teacher can ask the students to explain the grammar rule as a final check to understand the concept, as a conclusion to the activity.
Find and post examples of deductive and inductive arguments. For each example, evaluate its logical strength, using the concepts and ideas presented in the textbook readings, the lesson, and any other source you find that helps you to evaluate the validity (deductive) or strength (inductive) of the argument. You can use examples from the text, or you can find examples elsewhere. Editorials and opinion columns are a good source, as are letters to the editor. Blogs will also often be...
Give real life examples of inductive and deductive reasoning either from movies or personal conversations.
Which of the following arguments are inductive, and which are deductive? Just answer “inductive” or “deductive”. 1. The gardener said that she never saw the burglar’s face. She says she was in the house making tea, and that the burglar was in the shed. But the only footprints by the shed were hers. No other explanations could be found. So the reason she didn’t see the burglar is that she is the burglar. Inductive or deductive? _______________ 2. If we...

Define topic sentence, deductive paragraph, and inductive paragraph. 2b. In the context of a hypothetical formal message (in other words, a made up message, but write it as if it were actually going to be delivered) write a topic sentence, deductive, and inductive paragraph. 2c. Explain why your deductive paragraph is deductive and why your inductive paragraph is inductive.
Determine whether the given argument uses inductive or deductive reasoning. If deductive, determine whether the reasoning is valid or invalid. If it is sunny, we are not watching tv. We are watching tv. So, it must not be sunny.
Write two story problems that need to be solved using deductive or inductive reasoning. (Mathematical problem) one story problem is inductive and the other one is deductive.
Identify the premise (s) and conclusion and translation in this argument, explain why it is deductive or inductive: Iraq posed a treat to us, so we had to invade it.

In your assigned readings, you learned how inductive and deductive reasoning are used to answer questions about life. Briefly compare and contrast each type of reasoning as they apply to biological investigation. Which, if any, type of reasoning is best used to establish cause and effect relationships? Explain your rationale using one or more examples.
