Μουσειοπαιδαγωγική κατάρτιση των εκπαιδευτικών: προϋπόθεση για μια κοινή γλώσσα μουσείου και σχολείου

Περίληψη

The first step towards a society that respects and cares for its cultural heritage is formal and informal education that starts from early childhood. This kind of education is provided not only by museums that offer educa¬tional services addressed to schools and families, but depends highly on teacher attitudes and competence to deal with heritage issues and the learn¬ing potentials offered by museums and historical sites. This paper presents efforts made so far in Greece for the education of teachers of elementary, primary and high schools, on this subject, during their initial training in the Universities or in in-service seminars provided mostly by museums and museum organizations.
