Abstract

Contemporary social reality is gradually leading our educational system to the redefinition of its educational needs and goals, to the research for new educational tools, methods and techniques. School education is nowadays forced to meet with digital era facts, to face up to new educational challenges. Future citizens would be unable to pursue the new Citizens’ Society, the Society of Knowledge unless they personally experience those societies through school environment. Use of this online networking application, called “Εdmodo” is considered part of the above mentioned
new age educational experience and was originally used by informatics professors; later on it seemed appealing to use it also as the working environment for language lessons like ancient Greek. With the present article we try to present in a general way the use of the Εdmodo platform during an ancient Greek class in the first year of Lyceum in Paxos, the reasons for the research and the selection of this platform and the evaluation of its use.
