need guidance to help them ask appropriate, testable questions; collect evidence; and analyze<br />
data. As students gain experience and confidence, they ask more appropriate questions<br />
and improve their skills at forming explanations. When students understand the essential<br />
features of inquiry, they can conduct an independent inquiry. BSCS Biology: A Human Approach<br />
is designed to help students understand biology concepts through the use of inquiry-based<br />
activities and constructivist learning strategies. As students move through this curriculum,<br />
they transition from activities that explicitly guide their inquiry to doing their own inquiry.<br />
Along their journey, students learn how asking questions, conducting experiments, gathering<br />
data, forming explanations, relating explanations to other applications, and communicating<br />
their explanations are valuable skills that help them evaluate science-related issues that are<br />
part of everyday life.<br />
