As it can be justified in literature, many teachers, in many countries attempt to use new science teaching methods. There are challenges but there is ongoing research on how to deal with them.

A lot depends on a good teacher in the education process. If the teacher applies the guidelines of modern pedagogy well, the effects of the education process are accordingly higher. The teacher should use modern didactic methods and new pedagogical concepts. This is important because with each generation of pupils a lot is changing in culture, technology, economy, etc. This all translates into the development of didactic techniques, the creation of technical teaching tools and the creation of new pedagogical techniques that should be implemented on the current basis of teaching processes.
But also since conducting scientific research also much depends. New concepts, ideas, inventions, techniques, technologies, innovations, etc. are created. Thanks to this, the economy is developing, and civilization and cultural progress are being realized. Therefore, it is necessary to create good standards and conditions, including financing the conduct of research projects.
