1.WHAT DO YOU
OBSERVE IN THE
EQUATION?
2. DO YOU THINK IT’S
CORRECT? WHY
OR WHY NOT.
SITUATIONAL /
QUESTIONS
PUZZLES
Show different ways in
answering questions..
SITUATION #1
There was an airplane crash,
every single person on board
died, but yet two people
survived. How is this possible?
SITUATION #2
What goes up and never
comes down?
SITUATION #3
Imagine you are in a sinking
row boat surrounded by
sharks.
 1. What strategies or
ways did you use to
answer the questions?
THE THREE LEVELS OF INQUIRIES
 1. Common Sense - a basic
ability to perceive, understand,
and judge things that are shared
by (common to) nearly all people
without need for debate.
 1. A farmer had 752 sheep and
took one shot that got them How

Room #2: 50 Assassins with loaded guns.
Room #3: A room full of hungry lions that
didn't eat in 3 months. Which room is the
safest?
Answer:
Room #3 because the lions would
be dead if they didn't eat in 3
months.
3. Some months have 30 days, and
some have 31. How many have
28?
Answer:
Answer: All of them
 2. Scientific - Based on or
characterized by the methods
and principles of science.
 THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD
The scientific method is used by
scientists to conduct experiments and
research and record their findings.
 OBSERVATION
Example: Observation
• When I turn on a flashlight using the
on/off switch, light comes out of one
end.
Example: Question
• What makes light come out of a
flashlight when I turn it on?
 RESEARCH
Example: Research
• Look in the flashlight’s instruction manual for
tips, or conduct an online search on how
flashlights
work using the manufacturer’s website. You
can even analyze information and past
experiments or
discoveries regarding the relationship
between energy and light.
 HYPOTHESIS
Example: Hypothesis
• The batteries inside a flashlight
give it energy to produce light
when the flashlight is turned on.
 EXPERIMENTATION
Example: Experimental Procedure
1. Remove the batteries from the flashlight,
and try to turn it on using the on/off switch.
Result: The flashlight does not produce light.
2. Reinsert the batteries into the flashlight,
and try to turn it on using the on/off switch.
Result: The flashlight does produce light.
3. Write down these results.
 ANALYSIS
Example: Analysis
• Record the results of the
experiment in a table.
• Review the results that you have
written down.
 CONCLUSION
Example: Invalid Hypothesis
• What if the flashlight did NOT produce light
when the batteries were inserted? Then, the
hypothesis
would have to be modified to say something such
as, “The batteries inside a flashlight give it energy
to produce light when the batteries are in the
correct orientation and when the flashlight is
turned
on.” Then, another experiment would be
conducted to test the new hypothesis.
 CONCLUSION
Example: Valid Hypothesis
• The flashlight did not produce light
without batteries. The flashlight did
produce light when batteries
were inserted. Therefore, the hypothesis
that batteries give the flashlight energy to
produce light is valid,
given that no changes are made to the
flashlight during the experiment.
3. Philosophical - relating or
devoted to the study of the
fundamental nature of
knowledge, reality and
existence.
Sample:
Is appearance everything?
Is there life after death?
What’s difference between telling
a lie and keeping a secret?
1.In what situations do you
apply
philosophical inquiries?
WORD WEB MAP
Write associated words with
philosophy.
 GROUP WORK
The class will be divided into 8
groups and each group should
make a scenario to show each
level of the philosophical inquiry.
