Teaching the Uses of English • Deductively? Explicit teaching • Inductively? Having students analyze and generalize • Abductively? Contingent to the situation
© WestEd, Teacher Professional Development, 2013
Building on Peirce’s Ideas Induction refers to what is, data gathering Deduction refers to what must be, applying rules and laws Abduction refers to what may be, trying out things to see what may happen, to check if they work, or to experience something new In the language class it may be more profitable to start with abduction, which is experiential and exploratory, and move on to inductive and deductive tasks contingently, followed perhaps with further exploration at a wider or deeper level and so on. © WestEd, Teacher Professional Development, 2013
