Source:	Science Scope. Feb2009, Vol. 32 Issue 6, p36-41. 6p.

Abstract:	The article provides information about the Thinking Lesson Model, which focuses on two specific types of scientific reasoning which are the inductive and deductive thinking. According to the article, the learning flow of a deductive lesson starts with an introduction to a concept before moving into analyzing that concept, while inductive reasoning flows in the opposite direction. In addition, the model is described as a highly structured lesson-planning method that can be adapted for teaching lessons on either of the two types of reasoning skills.
