This element of the Teacher Education Programme aims to authenticate the learning experience through the use of research and design projects so as to develop ideas and allow for greater ownership in the learning process.

The best way to become skilled in this element is to get involved in a research project yourself!  As you move through this element you will find guidelines of how to organise and manage the development of suitable research and design projects together with suggestion for projects selected from the ESTABLISH Teaching and Learning units. 

The aims of this element are to outline how to organise and manage the development of suitable research and design projects for students and to describe the role, reasoning and operative procedures of project work in IBSE
