The school I work at is quite big and located at Heraklion (Crete).  There are about 370 students aged 6-12.  My  classroom is a computer lab with 12 PCs.
My students work in groups and use ICT in several projects.  My aim is to encourage them to engage in science topics and acquire scientific inquiry skills.  To achieve this aim, i use different online resources,  online labs and inquiry learning applications.

Also teachers are being pressured by time to complete specific goals, they are not properly trained and they are afraid of the new αnd the unknown. The lack of adequate infrastructure is also an inhibiting factor.]]> 2017-10-30 21:30:00 UTC https://padlet.com/silfot/learningdiary/wish/201941922 silfot https://padlet.com/silfot/learningdiary/wish/201948144 I think that all components are of crucial importance.  Maybe the most challenging for me is the collaboration because a lot of students when working in a team try to avoid work by leaving other members of the team to do all tasks.
