SLOVENIAN PRESENTATION

Slovenian students studied the use of ICT technology and applications in their home environment. The purpose of the research was to investigate: how many employed people in our area use ICT devices and applications at their work and why do they use them, how much do certain individuals of various age groups use ICT devices and applications in their free time (for example for entertainment, meeting other people, gaining information …) and how often is ICT used at education (teachers and students). In this purpose they made two interviews and a result analysis of three online questionnaires.

We also had some time for some activities with Apps. Then we had a warm farewell by all the students and teachers of the Greek school. We also enjoyed the beautiful traditional music of this fantastic country.

In the afternoon we had the opportunity to go to the Acropolis museum and the Acropolis of Athens.
