This document discusses the Discovery Approach and Inquiry-based Approach to teaching and learning. Both are student-centered approaches where students actively engage in learning through exploration, manipulation, and knowledge gathering via different hands-on activities. The key difference is that Discovery Approach involves discovering new concepts through observation or experimentation, while Inquiry-based Approach involves answering questions and solving real-world problems using facts and observations. Both approaches promote lifelong learning for students and require teachers to provide authentic questions, activities, or problems for students to explore and develop solutions.

LEARNING PAPER IN DISCOVERY APPROACH AND INQUIRY-
BASED APPROACH
The Discovery approach and the Inquiry-based approach share common
features.They are both student-centered approaches that necessitate the active engagement and involvement of students in the teaching and learning process. Students learned best via inquiry, manipulation, exploration, and knowledge gathering through different activities in which they are actively involved. They are the ones who constructively process their own knowledge through activities. The function of the teacher is simply to facilitate the learning process. In this approach, the teacher is not a "sage on a stage," but rather "as a guide on the side." Therefore, learners are responsible for their own learning.
As we delve deeper, Discovery Approach is the process of discovering
concepts using a sequence of data or information gained via observation or experimentation. Students may learn new concepts beyond goals incidentally or unintentionally as they actively involved in the activities. Whereas, Inquiry-based Approach is a self directed learning method that process of answering questions and solving real life issues and problems using facts and observations.
Moreover, the two approaches promote a lifelong learning towards the
learners. As a teacher, we must provide questions, activities or problems in real life situation or scenario. For them to relate, explore and develop a solution strategy to solve the given problem. The skills that they have learned may be useful in dealing day-to-day problems. With this, they attain or achieve the authentic learning.
