Classroom PedagogyThe use of teachers’ questioning to extend and deepen understanding was often weak; In some cases there was an over-reliance on a limited range of activities and missed opportunities to engage students by building on their existing knowledge and experience. Successful courses made effective use of real-world examples and of information and communication technology (ICT). In primary schools....the activities and tasks to be performed are simpler, and programmes have a shorter duration than found in secondary schools (for instance 2-3 months, or just the time needed to develop a specific project). The methodology will be more oriented towards learning by playing, through experimentation and games. Emphasis will be rather on attitudes (team working, initiative etc.) than on business skills. Activities already existing inside the school will be often used (like organising a bazaar, raising money for a school trip, etc.), or the student company may be organised around a certain event (like selling products at a School Fair).
