This week’s chapter on “Generating and Testing Hypotheses” is perhaps the most difficult to implement in
the reality of the classroom since it requires a precise balance of freedom and structure. Do you believe it
is important to incorporate these inquiry-driven moves? Draw from your experience as a teacher or
student to describe why it is it so important to “engage students in a variety of structured tasks for
generating and testing hypotheses” and to “ask students to explain their hypotheses and their
conclusions.” Integrate the Dean et al. text with one of the sources you browsed on Edutopia.org. (500-
