Then, contemporary quests such us e-books and web2.0 services are discussed. Furthermore, students become familiar with the production of digital content for the internet as well as with the design of activities for the exploitation of digital content in the learning process. Finally, students get familiarized with educational applications categories of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), as well as with the research related to the integration of technological applications in education. The aim of the course is the students to be capable to design and implement simple applications, to evaluate available ICT applications and to integrate ICT into teaching for better achievement of educational aims.

  • be able to recognize possibilities of exploitation of web2.0 applications and services

Educational Material for Mathematics

The course will investigate the role of materials in the theories in order to highlight the characteristics attributed to their role from the perspective of different learning theories. Also, recognizing the characteristics of educational materials, the principles of their design / selection, management and evaluation will be determined. Finally, through examples of existing and designed materials will explore the various aspects related to their integration into the teaching / learning process.

Through the study and presentation of theoretical articles as well as research on the role of materials in the teaching learning process, students will be able to understand the need for designed integration of educational material for mathematics.

Art as Educational Material

What are the object and the aims of Museum Education and how are they materialised in Art Museums?  
Methodology for the creation and materialisation of educational programs both at school and in art museums.

  • Educational material / educational activities regarding Art & development of programs of museum education in the school class:
  • The Box of Art
  • Examples of participatory learning through art
  • Dramatization / role play
  • Story making (e.g. from Kandinsky’s abstract works)
  • Discovery of information (e.g. from Cubist & Futuristic works)
  • Artistic creations with diverse materials

Language Pedagogical Material

A main characteristic of the contemporary language teaching internationally is the acceptance and the exploitation of the basic principles of the communicative approach. As a result, the most important goal of language education is the development of the students’ communicative competence.

The main issues concerning the language teaching material, which are discussed and investigated during the courses, are the below:

  • The kind and the characteristics of the language teaching material with respect to the educational level.
  • The authenticity of the material.
  • The role and the content of course books and the reference books in language teaching.
  • The place of the traditional means of language teaching into the modern communicative classroom.
  • The exploitation of the content free material in the language lessons.
  • The information and communication technologies in language teaching.
