This daylong program is based on a sequence of activities that give emphasis both on theoretical and practical aspects as well as on the aspects of the expression and evaluation.\u00a0It is organized in such a way that supports the conceptual development of students on both environmental concepts and issues and at the same time, its design enables a smooth transition from the simple to the complex, from the familiar to the unfamiliar and from the easiest to the most difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. The lake, a unique ecosystem<\/em>.<\/strong> <\/span>
\n Students are gathered into a special screening room where they have the opportunity to watch an excellent eco-documentary entitled Akrotiri Peninsula \u2013 An Environmental Tour<\/strong> created by the CYCERE\u00a0 as an introduction to its programs.<\/span>
\n Through an interactive discussion concepts related with the lake are highlighted and are discussed. In addition, its role and its functions are considered into the framework of the culture and the human societies. The emphasis of the program is focused on the relations and the interdependence of the lake organisms. The pressures and the threats that the lake receives are also considered and the need for conservation through appropriate environmental management practices as well as the adoption of attitudes and behaviors friendly to the environment are also stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

3. The lake and the\u00a0humanity.<\/em><\/strong><\/span>
\n Students are gathered in the ecology laboratory where they observe through stereoscopes and microscopes, they plan and execute experiments, they analyze data and compare results.\u00a0They discuss their concerns that arise and they come to conclusions.\u00a0They understand the need for sustainable management of the Despotic Lake developing positive attitudes and values towards the environment.<\/span><\/p>\n
