ΚΑΛΗ ΣΧΟΛΙΚΗ ΧΡΟΝΙΑ ΣΕ ΟΛΟΥΣ!

Food for thought!

"Τα επιτυχημένα εκπαιδευτικά συστήματα στον κόσμο είναι εκείνα που καταφέρνουν να εντάσσουν στο διδακτικό τους προσωπικό τους πιο ταλαντούχους.
 Αυτό είναι το συμπέρασμα στο οποίο καταλήγει η έρευνα την οποία έκανε η γνωστή εταιρεία συμβούλων McKinsey. Στόχος της ογκώδους έρευνας -που πραγματοποιήθηκε τα έτη 2000 με 2007- ήταν να εντοπίσει τους παράγοντες εκείνους που παίζουν τον καθοριστικό ρόλο στην ποιότητα της πρωτοβάθμιας και δευτεροβάθμιας παιδείας."

The IT in the classroom.

http://dstavrou.blogspot.gr/2013/04/the-it-in-classroom.html

The exploitation of  Information and Communication Technologies in the classroom are included into the systems of education of almost all the countries. I am convinced that using  the IT in the classroom is supposed to be not only  a discrete lesson but also  a very helpful kind of teaching aid. 

First and foremost, it depends on the way which the teacher uses the IT. There is a plenty of educative softwares which could be proved helpful. With them, the teacher can cultivate either the level of students’ knowledge or let them discover the new issues by interacting with the computer .

The innovation of interactive or smart boards as they are called, offers an enjoyable way to present a lesson by playing with amazing shapes, colors and new notions. A smart board can be used either by the teacher or by every single student so that he feels the protagonist of the lesson and avoid feeling  just a person who simply obeys the teacher. As a result, the students construct creatively their own way to the new information and enhance gradually their self-confidence.

If the IT is used properly in the classroom, the distance between the school and real life will get shorter. We should bear in mind that nowadays the children are able to obtain a huge number of data and save them into their USB stick, e.g. notes, books, videos. In addition, in the era of social networks, children have hundreds of “friends” from all over the world with whom are able to communicate and exchange data at any time of the day. So, why should the school not follow this tension? If we insist on an “immobile” traditional school which denies the openness to the new technologies, our students will simply lose their motivation and the society will gradually diminish its respect about the institution of education.

On the other hand, there is always the case of  bad use of the IT by the teacher. If so, it will be viewed only like a game by the students and will have nothing to offer in the process of  education but waste of time.

To sum up, it is worth being optimistic about the IT in the fields of education. We must enhance our efforts so that we create better qualified teachers, able to transfer to the students not only the new knowledge, but also the positive emotion of self-construction and self-confidence.

WORKSHEET FOR LOCAL HISTORY

THE BRITISH RULE IN CORFU AND THREE IMPORTANT PERSONALITIES

Frederick North, 5th Earl of Guilford (1766-1827) was a British politician and colonial administrator.

In 1824, North established the Ionian Academy on the island of Corfu, which was under British control as part of the United States of the Ionian Islands. It was the first University to be established in Modern Greece. the Academy consisted of four Schools of Excellence - Theology, Law, Medicine and Philosophy. In 1791, he converted to the Eastern Orthodox Church.

General Sir Frederick Adam (1781–1853) was a Scottish major-general.

Between 1824 and 1832 he was a popular Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian Islands.

He built the Mon Repos in 1826  as a gift to his Corfiot wife, Nina Palatianou. It is a small but very beautiful palace with colonial architectural elements.

   

The first such Commissioner, appointed in 1816, was Sir Thomas Maitland. Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Maitland, (1759–1824) was a British soldier and colonial governor.

A lot of construction was undertaken during this period, such as the aqueduct which was built to bring water to the town, an extensive road network and many new public buildings. Maitland left Corfu with its earliest neo-classical building, the Palace of Sts George and Michael and the Rotunda built in his honour on the Esplanade.

 THE BRITISH RULE IN CORFU

In 1815, a treaty was  signed in Paris between representatives of Britain, Russia, Austria and Prussia, by which it was determined that the Ionian Islands would form a free and independent state, which would, however, come under the immediate and exclusive protection of Great Britain.

The period of British rule was a prosperous period for Corfu because the Greek language became official, new roads were built, the water supply system was improved and the first Greek University was founded in 1824.

On 29 March 1864, the United Kingdom, Greece, France and Russia signed the Treaty of London, pledging the transfer of sovereignty to Greece.

Thus, on 21 May, the Ionian Islands were united with Greece.
