ABSTRACT
This chapter looks in detail at how the contextual teaching of Science, Technology & Engineering, and Mathematics, the contrasting teaching styles or different pedagogy of colleagues when doing project work, could also be shared, and in doing so pupil learning may be enhanced. Early in the twentieth century, practical work was seen as a route to learning and separate from vocational preparation. Project-based learning emphasises learning activities that are student-centred and bring together a ‘real’ worthwhile problem with relevant techniques to solve it. The issue of significance is sustainability and the project-based learning unit of work is focused on education for sustainable development. Systematic Inventive Thinking is a method of finding solutions to problems by making systematic alterations or manipulations with a system’s components and attributes, rather than searching randomly for ideas using methods such as brainstorming.
