Technological Challenges in Teaching Courses of Agricultural Interest in Vocational Upper Secondary Schools in Greece

The use of technology has entered in vocational education and training (VET), and there is a fundamental link between digital technologies and educational and pedagogical processes. The modern teacher must change his/her mentality and redefine his/her role from a simple provider of knowledge to a fellow traveller in the learning process, changing their pedagogical practices and promoting and successfully implementing digital technologies. The use of technology contributes to the activeness of students in the learning process and encourages individual learning and collaboration. Teachers can take advantage of students' interests and integrate technology into their classrooms, making learning effective and keeping them engaged in the lesson. This creates new opportunities for VET schools, teachers, and learners. Article visualizations:
