In Mexico, a new educational model is being implemented in High School which encourages modeling, experimentation, and cross-curricular content so that students can develop as integral citizens. One alternative to achieving these objectives is Model-Eliciting Activities (MEAS) for the study of variation. However, due to the limited availability of references to these activities in High school in Mexico, this document proposes exploratory teaching based on the Teaching Experiments methodology. The objective is to corroborate compliance with the design principles of MEAs, as well as to generate various hypotheses about interactions and the use of representations that support their design in the experimental teaching stage.
