Science begins with a question.

Select a guided investigation on the left, or create your own. Each step invites you to think, investigate and justify what you conclude.

READY TO EXPLORE

Choose an investigation to begin.

AN INQUIRY IS NOT A CHECKLIST

Five stages.
One habit of mind.

OBSERVE → PREDICT

Notice something. Risk an explanation.

Start from a biological phenomenon. State what you think might happen and why before seeing the model output.

EXPERIMENT → VERIFY

Change one thing. Question the result.

Record inputs, outputs and limitations. Distinguish observations in a simplified model from claims about living organisms.

EXPLAIN → CONNECT

Make your reasoning inspectable.

Build a claim supported by specific evidence, acknowledge uncertainty and identify the next question worth asking.
