- is contextual and purposeful
- involves a process of exploration
- leads to student wonderings and discovery learning
- empowers learners to investigate, connect, synthesise and communicate ideas
- provokes thinking and tests discoveries to develop understanding
- invokes meaningful engagement and learning transfer
