Towards a Versatile Tele-Education Platform for Computer Science Educators Based on the Greek School Network.

Now days the growing need for highly qualified computer science educators in modern educational environments is commonplace. This study examines the potential use of Greek School Network (GSN) to provide a robust and comprehensive e-training course for computer science educators in order to efficiently exploit advanced IT services and establish a modern and versatile education environment in the Greek Society. Furthermore, a preliminary questionnaire survey was performed in order to validate the adoption of GSN and also to formulate a realistic training course customized to specific and future needs of computer science educators in primary and secondary education, thus enabling them to immerse in real-world situations (i.e., school computer laboratory). Findings from this preliminary survey are also presented.
