THE CONTEMPORARY INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE SERVICE OF THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION: THE CASE OF GREECE
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2010, Vol 23, Issue 7
Abstract
The introduction of technology in general and especially information technology in education is a big change in the educational concepts which has taken place during the last two or three decades all over Europe. Besides, Europe through the process of continuous education improvement tries to maintain maybe the unique but also so much decisive comparative advantage that it possesses against all the other countries of our planet that is nothing else but the quality of its human potential. This article presents with brevity the important steps that the main European countries have made in the introduction of modern technologies of information technology in the primary and secondary education, as well as the process and the problems of their introduction in the Greek school. We believe that this experience will be very useful in a country like Lithuania that has already made very important steps in this sector simultaneously with its successfully continuing transition in the market economy system.
