  4. Two-week mathematics content course: What Must Secondary Mathematics Teachers Be Able To Do in Order to Conduct Inquiry Based Lessons? Usiskin (2001) has suggested a framework for secondary mathematics based on areas of analysis in which teachers engage during lessons. He argued that teachers must be able to:

  5. 1. Analyzeconcepts: recognize ways of explaining and representing ideas, select alternative definitions and their consequences, understand how mathematical ideas arose and evolved over time, and apply mathematics to a range of fields;2. Analyzeproblems: understand alternative approaches to problem solving and have the ability to extend or generalize proofs and problems;3. Analyze connections: explain links between school mathematics, the broader field of mathematical study and the world.ANALAGOUS FOR SCIENCE –“DOING” RATHER THAN RECEIVING. CONTENT. CONNECTIONS
