Page 4: DOCUMENT RESUME - ERIC · principle), Inquiry Factors or logical steps in inquiry, Behavioral Objectives, Affective or Attitudinal Qualities, and Inquiry into inquiry. Many components

This document was written to be used by administrators, supervisors,curriculum designers, teacher educators, evaluators and students for a wide

range of activities from revising current instructional objectives to developingevlauation instruments. Although the objectives were developed for use pri-marily at the high school level, they may be useful at the elementary andcollege levels. The document may be used in classroom situations in whichstudents and teachers demonstrate varying degrees of inquiry skill and attitudedevelopment.

Recently the document has served as a basis for a doctoral dissertation(Steiner, 156). The instruments developed in this study are being used toevaluate components of the Developing Inquiry Skills program at the Mid-continent Regional Educational Laboratory.

This document is viewed as a preliminary draft rather than a final state-ment of objectives. Feedback on the use of this document will be helpful. Aquestionnaire has been inserted for your comments and suggestions.

role in science was primarily to be established or disestablished,

"proved" or "disproved." In fact, however, hypotheses play another

important role. They serve as guides pointing the way to new dis-

coveries.We can make the significance of this role clearer by re-examining

the "If . . . , then . . ." logic associated with the use of hypotheses.When we look at such a logical chain from one point of view, it seemsto be purely and simply a major step toward "proving" the "If." "IfA, then B." We seek for B. If we find it, our hypothesis, A, is ren-dered possible. If we fail to find B, we are in doubt. If we showthat B does not exist, we have disproved the hypothesis, A.

Now let us look at an "If A, then B" from another point of view.The A, the hypothesis, is a new idea, or a familiar idea in an untriedand unfamiliar context. Therefore, the B is also something new orsomething familiar but located in a context as yet unsearched; sowe proceed to search for the new thing or in the new context. Inthis new search something new may be discovered. Whether thesomething new corresponds to our hypothesis or not, it sets off astream of fresh enquiries likely to lead to fresh and important knowl-edge. This is the point suggested in Invitation 11 and repeated inInvitations 12 and 13.

There are two important ways to emphasize this role of hypotheses.One way is to point out that science is not one process but two. It isa process of discovery as well as a process of "proof."

A second important way to present the role of hypotheses in theprocess of discovery is as follows. The problem of obtaining wanteddata is twofold. First, it is the problem of obtaining the data whenwe know what data we want. The planned and controlled experi-ment is the best solution to this problem.

In addition, the problem of obtaining wanted data is the problem ofknowing what data to want. The conceiving of fresh hypotheses isthe way we solve this problem.

The two problems are, of course, connected. Hence the devicesthat solve them are connected too. Although it is the experiment thatleads us to our data, it is the hypothesis that leads us to our experi-ment. And the fresh hypothesis leads us also to fresh problems.

THE NEED FOR A THIRD PRINCIPLE OF ENQUIRY

Such events as these point to the usefulness of a principle of enquiryin biology, one that will open doors to which the classical conceptionhas no key. The classical conception in its pristine form depends ona fixed structure, a fixed function, and a fixed relation between thetwo. A fixed function is the knowledge object at which the enquiryaims. A definite structure .( and action) is required in order to yieldthe data which this pattern of enquiry must use. A fixed relationbetween the two is the ground on which the data of structure, locus,and action are interpreted to yield knowledge of function,

By contrast, such flexibilities and varipotencies as we have just de-scribed point to a new knowledge-object which requires a new kindof data and a new pattern for its interpretation. Instead of knowl-edge about one collection of regular, recurrent parts, we will wantknowledge about changeable parts within the set; even, possibly, ofchangeable sets. For example, we would no longer ask, "What is thecellular structure of the lung?" Rather, we would ask (by analogyto Haldane's report), "What is the repertory possessed by this organ,the several cellular arrangements and architectures of which it iscapable?"

This new question would bring in its wake two related ones: (1)What conditions evoke this, that, or the other item in the repertory?(2) What are the complex, subtle processes by which one item ofthe repertory, one cellular architecture, is replaced by another?

By questions such as these we could seek out the flexibilities of our"parts." We also want to seek out the flexibilities of our "whole."This can be done by an analogous shift of the problem we pose. Wewould no longer ask, "What is the function or role of this organ?"Instead, we would ask, "When parts X, Y, and Z do thus and so,what role does part A play?" We would then ask, "When X, Y, orZ is changed in such-and-such a way, what correlative change takesplace in Awhat new roles does it play to make of A, X, Y, and Z anintegrated whole?"

Such a pattern of research reflects the conception of the self-regula-tory organism.

Expt. 7. The offspring of 28 plants inherited the long axis, andthose of 72 plants some the long and some the short axis.

In each of these experiments a certain number of the plants cameconstant with the dominant character. For the determination ofthe proportion in which the separation of the forms with the con-stantly persistent character results, the two first experiments areof especial importance, since in these a larger number of plants canbe compared. The ratios 1.93 to 1 and 2.13 to 1 gave togetheralmost exactly the average ratio of 2 to 1. The sixth experimentgave a quite concordant result; in the others the ratio varies moreor less, as was only to be expected in view of the smaller number of100 trial plants. Experiment 5, which shows the greatest depar-ture, was repeated, and then, in lieu of the ratio of 60 and 40, thatof 65 and 35 resulted. The average ratio of 2 to 1 appears, therefore,as fixed with certainty. It is therefore demonstrated that, of thoseforms which possess the dominant character in the first generation,two-thirds have the hybrid-character, while one-third remainsconstant with the dominant character.

The ratio of 3 to 1, in accordance with which the distribution ofthe dominant and recessive characters results in the first genera-tion, resolves itself therefore in all experiments into the ratio of2:1:1 if the dominant character be differentiated according to itssignific ance as a hybrid-character or as a parental one. Since themembers of the first generation [F2] spring directly from the seedof the hybrids [F1], it is now clear that the hybrids form seeds havingone or other of the two differentiating characters, and of these one-halfdevelop again the hybrid form, while the other half yield plants whichremain constant and receive the dominant or the recessive characters[respectively] in equal numbers.
