Hellenic Scientific Associations / Companies: Towards Enhanced Open Learning
Abstract
This article describes the process and main conclusions of the discussion organized and hosted at the 9th International Conference on Open and Distance Learning, ICODL 2017, in Athens on Saturday 25 November 2017. The panel discussion was titled "Greek Scientific Associations/Companies. Past, present and future". As can be seen from the profile and activities of the participating scientific associations, we are faced with a multitude of actions and activities that can benefit the modern Greek scientist and the educational community in general. The target group for each association may be different, but the basic principles and philosophy of openness, the commitment to science and the promotion of research and quality in education and science are commonplace. At the same time, the emerging dynamics and the ever-growing presence of scientific associations/companies in domestic and international events strengthen the view of the important role they are required to play in the field of civil society and informal learning.
