Special Education - Learning Disabilities

In each lesson, video and PowerPoint presentations are used. For their project, students work on computers and design with the help of electronic sources. Communication with students takes place almost exclusively via the internet.

The evaluation is in the Greek. The assessment includes an individual research synthesis paper. The assignment evaluation criteria are provided at the beginning of the course and they vary depending on the specific assignment.
