Note: Inductive method presents first the examples, and the rule or generalization discovered
or formulated by the students. The inductive method is used when teaching
rules/generalization correct usage in English or Filipino. This method is also used in teaching
lessons that require the application of a theory, or application of a law. The same method is
used in teaching Mathematical processes.
