The Art of Asking Good Questions for Hands-On Investigations

This guide outlines the essential rules for formulating effective questions that can lead to hands-on investigations. A good question should clearly specify the material or object under consideration and identify both variables involved. It should focus on measurable variables that have a clear relationship, facilitating meaningful experimentation. By adhering to these guidelines, learners can enhance their investigative skills and deepen their understanding of scientific principles through inquiry-based learning.
