The seminar aims to deepen teachers' acquaintance with the Acropolis, the Parthenon, and its sculptures as a monument of World Cultural Heritage. The Acropolis includes numerous historic monuments, and the Parthenon's sculptures are symbolic parts of the temple built in the 5th century BC during ancient Greek civilization. Additionally, the New Acropolis Museum showcases treasures from Greek history.

Exploring through the Webinar: The 4th Webinar encourages educators to reflect, explore, and engage in discussions about the Acropolis and the New Acropolis Museum. The session will provide teaching methods, exercises, activities, and games for educators to incorporate into their classrooms. A video projection will take participants on a historical journey through the Acropolis.

As the Office of Education continues to foster continuous learning and professional development, this seminar underscores their dedication to the ongoing enrichment of Greek Language teachers.

For more details or questions, educators are encouraged to contact the Director of the Education Office, Dr. Anastasios Koularmanis.
