Abstract

During a research study focused on the application of the Bifocal Modelling methodology to the use of hydroponic greenhouses in schools to study plant growth and the identification of variables that contribute to plant health, a positive impact on students' eating habits was found. Following this finding, a survey was conducted to quantify the impact of this activity on students' perceptions of vegetables grown in the classroom. The results are positive and indicate that incorporating the management of a vegetables garden or hydroponic greenhouse into the curriculum can have positive effects on the eating habits of the students
