Abstract
AbstractThe development and modification of learning skills did not follow the boom of the other areas. In the teaching materials verbal knowledge is still the most significant, which does not require thinking and creativity from the students during acquisition; what more, sometimes even the pedagogues do not like those students, who apply unique problem-solving strategies. Making the knowledge applicable does not happen via passive reception, but rather via active learning based on individual thinking and experiences. Research based knowledge acquisition may be applied already from the age of 10; and it enables an prepares children to get along creatively in our knowledge-based society, which requires the individual search and use of information and sources, sensitivity towards problems and a general knowledge of research methods. During the lecture I will introduce the working group of young researchers, where children learn the basics of research step-by-step and show how the roles of students and teachers change during the individual discoveries. So-called “Dunántúli Mandulafa” is a scientific competition of 10-19-year-old young researchers, where they show their first ever presentation and make their first scientific publication - considering the abilities originating from their age, certainly.
