Last week's discussion topic was education. It all started with a brief introduction to Summerhill and its democratic views on educating children and continued with brainstorming and collecting ideas concerning the Greek educational system, its advantages and disadvantages. Unfortunately, we almost all agreed that the drawbacks outweigh the benefits and next week will try to suggest ways with which we might improve things (even if just in theory). On the Project Pages there are some very interesting ideas on the "Ideal School" as well as some research on other educational systems ("Education Abroad") all projects by ex-Anavryters. They are worth having a look at before we start working on our own projects...soon to be announced!
This blog aims to be the hang-out for all the students of the third grade of Anavryta Model Junior High School who are craving to post all their thoughts and ideas in English!!!! It's also where we'll be uploading the projects and fun stuff (!!!!) we do in class. We also want to share the topics we discuss in class and generally whatever draws our attention. So, all aboard and post away...
