Emergency Remote Teaching
A combination of synchronous and asynchronous tools
 Webex as a synchronous video teleconferencing system
 Electronic School Class (e-class) of the Panhellenic
School Network (GSN) as an asynchronous platform

12. The teacher supports and guides the students,
creating online situations of exploratory and
collaborative learning.
The students
 communicate
 collaborate
 interact
 experiment with interactive learning objects and
other online tools-environments
 investigate the concepts under negotiation
 submit their work.

Digital lessons in the electronic School
Classroom (e-class)
These courses
• are open, so they do not require registration in order for
students to have free and easy access without the need
for an account.
• serve to gather, post and use educational material (eg
activities, presentations, interactive learning objects,
hyperlinks) for the smooth running of remote teaching.
• enable immediate access to the material and avoiding
tracking, avoiding unnecessary delays ( file upload).
