Nowadays, environmental issues belong to frequently discussed topics. Our article focuses on the implementation of environmental issues in teaching the subject of Technical education at primary schools in the Slovak Republic. Our research sample consisted of 123 students, graduates of primary schools in Trnava, Trenčín and Bratislava regions after they started to study at secondary vocational schools. We wanted to find out more information about their experience related to working with tools, instruments and machines, to developing their creativity, designing and manufacturing of their hand-made products. Our main questions dealt with environmental issues and their acquisition in the subject of Technical education. Up to 55.5 % of respondents stated that they did not learn, or they did not remember the area of environmental issues within the given subject. 7.8 % of respondents remembered mainly the topic of waste sorting out of all environmental issues discussed at the lessons of Technical education. In general, environmental aspects as cross-cutting topics of the educational process can be adequately demonstrated and implemented in the subject of Technical education. However, this implementation also requires a new conceptual approach to the teachers` education and the lifelong education of the whole society, as well.

Today, some faculty members are trying to show students how to learn, not just teach them the subject matter. These faculty members believe that the acquisition of life-long learning skills will enhance a student's intellectual growth well beyond the semester's coursework. A typical active learning approach emphasizes the students' role in constructing knowledge by engaging in inquiry, critical thinking, and problem solving. The first part of this paper discusses what active learning is and why it is desirable; the second part suggests how to use two sided pedagogical approach, the A is for Analysis model (Taylor, 1998 ) and problem-based learning (Gallagher, 1997), to implement the concepts and help students recognize that context creates complexity. It is an experiential learning exercise that focuses on interpersonal relationships, goal conflicts, self­ awareness and social awareness of relationships.

This study is based on critical interpretation and the concept of some key terms in particular. First, this article gives a glimpse into the background of critical thinking, the theoretical basis of Freire's critical pedagogy, and his life experience. Similarly, Freire's critical thinking on the banking education system, which hinders the development of learner's creative thinking, is discussed. These include the role of oppression and dehumanization of the traditional and banking system of education, dialogue and conscientization, libations and problem-posing education, praxis as the reflection in the situations, the role of political and cultural factors in educational change. Second, based on Freire's critical pedagogy, there is a critical interpretation of the current school system's educational process, Practicing Freedom based Teaching Strategies, curriculum planning, and possible transformation into teacher and learner roles. Therefore, to prepare a citizen inspired by freedom and humanization, it is necessary for learners to have critical pedagogical method that can move forward by establishing a connection between themselves and their environment.
