The Aegean Greek Immersion Summer School (AEGIS): International Summer School is organized by the Department of Primary Education at the School of Humanities and will take place on the island of Rhodes, Greece.
The curriculum is tailored to the needs of students from the Greek Diaspora, as well as foreign language learners. It is structured around three levels of language proficiency (A1, A2, B1/B2) in accordance with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
Α1 Level – beginners | Α2 Level – intermediate | B1 Level - advanced
The summer school aims to cover the communicative and academic needs of the participants while taking into consideration their identity negotiation process. In this context, modern methods and pedagogical approaches are applied to the teaching of Greek as a heritage/foreign language. They include interaction of learners with native speakers, visits to sites of cultural and historic significance, as well as experiential learning through active participation in cultural events, e.g. participating in Greek cooking and dancing lessons, and daily sports and social activities. The program utilizes the experience and expertise of the staff of the Department of Primary Education in issues regarding language teaching in multilingual communities and the creative use of new technologies in education.
The summer school provides a unique opportunity for participants to develop communication skills in both oral and written language, through a gradual and conscious acquisition of the basic structures and vocabulary of Modern Greek and through a critical approach to various contemporary cultural contexts where language is used. At the end of the course, participants are expected to function effectively as competent users of Modern Greek in their daily communication environments, in interpersonal relationships, as well as, in dealing with more specific personal affairs. Through the development of appropriate communication and sociocultural skills, they will be able to use the language fluently, not only for social, but also for professional and academic purposes. Moreover, students are expected to expand their knowledge to more specific aspects of Modern Greek culture and literature by participating in various cultural and academic events when they return to their communities.
