At the moment there is a focus on the use of the Ministry’s equipment. To this end, cables are being created with which sensors can work with as many boards as possible, the STEM Extension with which we can program S1 & S2 with Mind+, Lego type building materials, Supporting materials with related lessons and books and suggestions. Seminars have been started to make use of the equipment available in schools.

The preparation of the Panhellenic Competition is in progress, for which the registration form for teams, information, the webinars for teachers’ preparation, etc. can be found here.

About Course

“STEM Roots” is a comprehensive STEM program focused on innovative sustainable agricultural practices.

Students build hydroponic plant growth systems in groups and participate in nine activities focused on automating these systems. They explore topics such as hydroponic technology, efficient watering techniques, environmental monitoring, and the effects of climate variables such as temperature, humidity, and light on plant growth.

Students gain in-depth knowledge of the physical quantities that affect plant growth, analyze, and measure them

The program emphasizes practical skills in building and maintaining a hydroponic greenhouse, using IoT technology for real-time monitoring, and implementing electronic systems for automated plant care. Through these activities, students gain a deep understanding of sustainable agriculture, the integration of technology in agriculture, and the broader implications of environmental management during cultivation
