Inductive vs Deductive method • A deductive approach to instruction is a more teacher-centered approach. This means that the teacher gives the students a new concept, explains it, and then has the students practice using the concept. In contrast with the deductive method, inductive instruction makes use of student “noticing”. Instead of explaining a given concept and following this explanation with examples. • In my opinion, the inductive method is more useful because students learn by their own and they develop more critical thinking which allows not only to have better results, but better understanding about the clases. However the deductive method has more practice which is also very important for students .
