Infer Observe Understand

Understanding is developed by making logical connections between what is observed and what is inferred.  Students learn to gather evidence and recognize that nference and preditction depends on memory -  past experience, perspective, bias, and point-of-view.  Students learn to organize their thoughts, question their assumptions, and revise their understanding (ie. build new memory) when observations do not support inference. This approach treats the human brain as a memory system which stores and plays back experiences to help us intelligently infer what has happened and/or predict what will happen next.
