Inductive

teacher provides examples which have the same

concept rule in common.

teacher attempts to elicit critical attributesandnon-critical attributes,

students should begin to understand thecommon concept found in all of the examples.

The teacher shows examples and non-examples

of the same concept to students.

students categorise the examples or non-examples and come with a generalisation


14/14

Deductive

teacher starts with the concept rule, or a generalstatement

provides examples , proof of the concept rule and

attempts to elicit essential and non-essentialcharacteristics of the concept

More examples and non-examples of the same
