Reflection on ITS

Going through this challenging topic(Inductive teaching), i not only enjoy learning it but also feel its importance for us as a constructivist teacher. It is very much inspiring to learn thetopic and further the 4 phases, the purposes, the advantages and disadvantages,its steps and mainly the role of a teacher. In simple words, if i define the term Inductive Teaching, discovery and inquiry based learning whereby a simple concept is used teach complex ideas.

Procedural steps of Inductive Teaching Strategy.

The 4 phases of ITS
 I. Open ended phase- teacher provides examples and non-examples.
II. Convergent phase- student's identifies the diff. patterns
III. Closure- student's gives their own definitions and their understandings.
IV. Application phase-tutor gives the appropriate answer at last.
