Our Proven Methodologies at
Bestminds Academy
At Bestminds Academy, we believe that effective learning requires clear strategies and consistent habits. Our teaching methodologies are designed to help students master Science concepts, think critically, and present their answers accurately. Here are the four core methodologies that we emphasize
Methodology 1: Claim Evidence Reasoning
Mastering scientific explanations through structured reasoning.
Our CER framework helps students develop logical, well-supported answers. By guiding them to make a clear claim, back it up with evidence, and explain the connection, we build confident, analytical thinkers.
- Claim: State a clear and concise answer.
- Evidence: Provide data or observations to support the claim.
- Reasoning: Explain how the evidence supports the claim.
This structured approach ensures that students build logical, well-supported arguments.
Methodology 2: The 3C Principle
Crafting precise, well-organized responses with clarity.
We teach students to structure their written answers using the 3C Principle. By ensuring accuracy in concepts, relevance to the context, and clear presentation, students learn to express their thoughts coherently and confidently.
- Concept: Ensure the scientific principle is accurate.
- Context: Relate the concept to the given situation.
- Clarity: Present the answer in a clear, coherent manner.
By following the 3C Principle, students develop precise and well-organized responses
Methodology 3: Bestminds OAC Method
Observing, Analyzing, and Communicating with precision.
Our OAC Method trains students to pay attention to details, analyze information logically, and present their thoughts clearly. This comprehensive approach is integral to every lesson, helping students think critically and articulate their understanding effectively.
- Observe Carefully: Pay attention to details in questions.
- Analyse Logically: Break down information to draw valid conclusions.
- Communicate Clearly: Present answers in an organized and understandable way.
We rigorously train our students to apply the OAC Method in every lesson.
Methodology 4: Bestmind’s 5AUI Habits
Building accuracy and clarity through essential habits.
We emphasize the 5AUI habits to help students craft accurate, context-appropriate answers. By teaching them to apply correct concepts, adapt to questions, and avoid unnecessary words, we build a strong foundation for precise scientific communication.
- Apply correct concepts in the given context.
- Annotate key words and phrases for better understanding.
- Adapt answers to fit the context of the question.
- Avoid assuming when the answer is "Not Possible To Tell."
- Use correct prepositions in explanations.
- Identify “NOBI” (Not Only But If) and conditions.
By developing these habits, students improve their accuracy and clarity in answering questions.
