Predict-observe-explain for goal-setting

Curriculum Component Patterns

Description:
In the SDL approach, it is not the teacher but students who take the lead to ask a problem. How to motivate students to ask questions? Teachers may encourage students to observe a phenomenon and ask them to predict what may happen when some conditions/variables change.

Typical sequence of tasks in this CC pattern:
1. Students are provided a quick overview of the scenario of the problem
2. Based on the scenario, students predict what would happen
3. Students discuss and explain whether the outcomes agree with the prediction and why
4. Students write down the explanation
