It reinforces the need to challenge what we learn by asking questions which provide further information as well as to establish the validity of what has been discovered. It does this via 6 steps: Step 1: What do we know already? Step 2: Why is it important to the enquiry? Step 3: Who agrees with the theory? (and why?) Step 4: Who disagrees with the theory? (and why?) Step 5: What else do we need to investigate? Step 6: What do I believe?
