探究是学校科学活动不可或缺且重要的一部分。假设的提出是任何科学探究的关键部分，然而从当前的科学教育文献中无法得出一个连贯的假设概念。通过关注假设作为问题的试探性解决方案的作用，提出了一个假设的基本概念。这个概念是结合科学教育旨在促进的不同类型的知识而发展和区分的。有人认为，以这种方式识别不同类型的假设有助于阐明学校中科学探究的目的和方法。
Investigations form an integral and significant part of school science activities. The creation of hypotheses is an essential part of any scientific investigation, but no coherent concept of hypothesis can be derived from the current literature of science education. By focusing on the role of hypotheses as tentative solutions to problems, a basic concept of hypothesis is proposed. This is developed and differentiated in relation to the different kinds of knowledge which science education seeks to promote. It is argued that recognizing different kinds of hypothesis in this way can help to clarify both the aims and the methods of scientific investigation in schools.
