The process from problem finding to hypothesis formulating is called the context of discovery, and traditionally its instruction and evaluation have not been much emphasized. Therefore, this research aims to clarify the necessity of evaluation in the context of discovery, as well as the problem of evaluation methods in this context, and analyzes the evaluation method from the preceding research. As a result, the necessity of evaluation can be asserted in the context of discoveries, and the evaluation of the context of discovery in previous research is divided into 4 types; (A) evaluation of create number, (B) logicality evaluation, (C) evaluation of verifiability, (D) evaluation of ability. In addition, it became clear that there are several problems in each evaluation method. Specifically, they are: evaluation that is not returned to the instruction method (A), does not consider the thought process (B), applies an evaluation method oriented to the context of justification of the discovery (B&C), the difficulty of judging the possibility of verification (C), the ability required in the context of discovery has not been disclosed (D), the relationship between ability and actual performance is not disclosed (D).
