CLIMATE CHANGE AND COSMOGRAPHY

Introduction

A beautiful universe, with the small earth at its center mediating knowledge and carrying it everywhere. From schools, universities and science museums. In our museum this year, the theme of our museum is extantas and cosmography in general. In addition, climate change has unexpectedly arisen, following the heavy rainfall that characterizes our planet and especially our region (Mouzaki-Karditsas 2019).

Many times there are events that outweigh our personal promote and require collective efforts to get better results. Our school is directly connected to our society, because our students live in it almost all day long. Their concerns are our concerns. Thus, in the events that occurred in the Municipality of Karditsa and the Municipality of Mouzaki concerning the floods, as a school with published educational activities we will give the historical and social dimension of the problem. Our pedagogical approach is intended as another message to be a reminder of the mechanisms that can help our region. Students exhibit their photographic material.

Climate change. Recent Historical Document

It is very important, especially after the continuous disasters in recent years in Greece, neighboring countries and around the world caused by floods. It is also important in planning related to the environmental management of water resources and as applications of ecological engineering, which is necessary for our region and our country in general.

The effects of global warming are not evenly distributed over all latitudes and longitudes. Climatic phenomena such as droughts, floods are expected to occur more frequently. The picture I encounter on the way to my school where, farms still have water, plants muddy is nightmarish. The Headmaster of the school on the morning calling after a week of suspension only asked who has no books due to water ingress at home. There are rumors of students who have lost their homes. After the second week was over we began to discuss the damage everyone has suffered, and it is normal to have lost part of your home, furniture and clothing.

Social dimension of the European project OSOS (Open Schools for open Societies)

Everything that is happening today should end quickly. The school to find its normal rhythm. The idea of OSOS has entered our lives as a basic tool and not as an accumulated knowledge or as an interactive tool for solving exercises in various forums. That is how we will try to continue our coursework. To approach the physical teaching of the classroom with complementary activities outside of it. So we too offer interactively as a classroom group, as a school and as a science museum to our local community, to worry to hope for something better.

Five years later 2023 in the region of Trikala, Farkadona and Karditsa(Palamas) exactly the same flooding events occur. The photographic material describes IANOS and DANIEL.

The OSOS logo contained in four words captures a new vision for schools : Feel - Imagine - Create - Share.
