Authentic learning is important as it immerses students into an environment and makes them responsible for their own learning. The situation we are providing is learning to grow plants in the most effective way. We have chosen plants because it is important that children understand the processes and life cycles of things. We aim to focus on plants as they are easy to manage in a classroom environment. The project applies scientific method to the growth of plants. In this project technology will support the learning.======
