K-W-L to T-H-C
This article is about switching from a KWL chart which is what students know, want to know, and have learned about a specific topic - to a THC chart which is what students think, how they can find out, and what they conclude about a specific topic. I think this chart would be much more useful in a inquiry based science classroom. It gives students more opportunity to explore their thinking in the H column, and also makes it more clear in the T column that they do not necessarily have to have the right answer for what they know but rather now look at it for what they think. This chart also allows for more inquiry based topics and is more appropriate for a science classroom.
