1. To know and interpret the natural enviroment and the phenomena associated.
2. To use the different sources of information in a critical manner.
3. To make written reports from the data obtained through different ways, using the general and the scientific language in a clear, accurate and simple way, as well as drawings, graphs or formulae that synthesize the personal opinion.
4. To design and use tools and techniques for checking.
5. To collaborate in the planning and making of the groupworks.
6. To have a scientific and critical attitude towards reality and to encourage the interest for deepening in knowledge.
7. To carry out works under the maxims of self-confidence, clarity, conciseness, tidiness and structure.

With this method proposal, the learners have achieved:

1. The choice of a topic which they are interested in.
2. The searching for information in libraries, the Internet, associations, etc.
3. The working out of a presentation in digital format has led all learners to summarize, draw out conclusions, use the schema framework, use drawings, simplicity in the presentation...
4. Presentation of the topic, film session, planning of the discussion workshop.
5. Development of the work in groups.
6. Factors such as curiosity, interest in deepening into knowledge, affinity matters and experience have been the main motifs that have led the learners towards the topic selection in all the cases.
7. Concern for a clear presentation.

The methodology proposed is based on applying the scientific method to the study of an interesting topic chosen by the learner himself/herself.

We proposed them the work either individually or in pairs and requested them a presentation in digital format useful for showing it later to their classmates. We also asked them for the edition of a web page to share experience and to receive it from students of other countries so that they can enrich their work. Before they start with the work, as a previous step, they were asked for a written indexed outline.

The work proposal, which was previously agreed on by all, started to develop according to what was devised for each of the groups. The different groups and study topics included were:

• AIDS.
• Tobacco.
• Children's psychology in 6-8 years old.
• Two stroke engines.
• Medical applications of the Marihuana
• Tequila. Spirits. Distillation.
• Basic electrical circuits. Commutators, switches and transformers.
• The noise. Health consequences.

Library, the Internet, associations…

The best results correspond to the motivation factor. The fact of working out personal aspects have greatly encouraged motivation. Nevertheless, it is also worth mentioning the existence of certain disadvantages that I have found in the practice of this methodology:

• Excessive amount of information.
• Slow and, sometimes, imperfect work.
• Difficulties to apply the new technologies: lack of training especially in the teachers (as a teacher I particularly feel completely lost with the programmes managed by the learners themselves).
• Great number of hours have been devoted to coordinate the different works, with diferent subjects. This involves the need of working in continuous contact and communication. Time devoted to teacher team work.
