Football and science - do they mix?
With 50,000 users, Footee is a highly popular free online education resource that builds on football’s appeal to young people 6-12 and their love of games, competition and social networking to make learning effective and fun. European Schoolnet is working to make the resources relevant to learners across Europe and among the many games are 14 that develop scientific understanding. Do topics like Forces and motion, materials and their properties and physical processes sound dull? Maybe not Beach Dodger, Floodlight Failure and Hit the Target though, but children can learn about science while playing these games.

ΔΝΤ : Θεία δίκη ή σπάει το απόστημα;
Ήτανε Πέμπτη 22 Απριλίου του 2010 όταν λίγο πριν φύγω το βράδυ από το γραφείο, άνοιξα το ραδιόφωνο να ακούσω τις ειδήσεις. Τι το ήθελα; Μαύρη μαυρίλα όλα τα νέα. Υποβάθμιση από τη Moody’s, τα spreads «χτυπάγανε» ταβάνι, το χρηματιστήριο είχε Μεγάλη Παρασκευή, προσφυγή στο Δου Νου Του, και το μόνο που έμενε, ήταν να ακούσω τις καμπάνες για την εξόδιο λειτουργία, μιας χώρας που κάποτε λεγόταν Ελλάδα.Κάτι τέτοιες στιγμές θυμάμαι το Μήτσο. Τον έχω ανάγκη. Σήκωσα αμέσως το τηλέφωνο.

Our educational system is disappointing
A good education system is fundamental to a nation that wants to be economically and otherwise independent. It appears that Greece has a long way to go to reach this goal according to the results of a survey conducted in Thessaloniki’s schools last month among students (1118), parents (378) and teachers (131).
