Correct Answer - Option 4 : from known to unknown
Inductive method: Inductive method is called the method in which general rules or principles are formed by observation and analysis of particular facts and events.
Following is the salient features of the Inductive method:
1- From example to rule
2- From gross to fine
3- From specific to general
4- From known to unknown
5- From concrete to abstract
The inductive method is often considered to be a tedious method of teaching because the learning process is very long in it.
This method is given by Aristotle.
Step of Inductive method:
1. Presentation of specific examples
2. generalize
3. Observe
4. Test and verify
Deductive method: Deductive method has an important place in classroom teaching, In this method, first rules are given and then lead to an example., this method is very useful for teaching science and mathematics.
- The main features of the content presented during the teaching of the deductive method are as follows:
- From fine to gross
- From general to specific
- From unknown to known
- From the abstract to the concrete
- From rule to example.
Step of Deductive method:
1. presentation of general rules
2. establishing relationships
3. test by examples
The deductive method is considered useful for teaching science and mathematics, but some scholars believe that in this method of teaching, students tend to move towards rote learning, which slows down the pace of teaching-learning.
Aristotle is the father/exponent of the deductive method.
Hence, we can conclude that the right answer to this question is from known to unknown.
