1 Strand 1: Inquiry Process Science as inquiry is basic to science education and a controlling principle in the continuing organization and selection of students activities. Students at all grade levels and in every domain of science should have the opportunity to use scientific inquiry and develop the ability to think and act in ways associated with inquiry (NSES 1995).
