This book emerged from my curiosity to become acquainted with the relation between language acquisition and strategic learning. I want to share with colleagues and with student-teacher-researchers the findings after several years of work with educators. This book attempts to address the question of how to promote experiential learning and problem solving. While in formal education, pupils require to develop the capacity to do something with what is learnt, such knowledge should, among other things, allow people to understand the society in which they live in and to solve real life problems.
