Minerals: the gifts of the earthquakes and the volcanoes in Aegean
by Vasilios Melfos, Assistant Professor
melfosv@geo.auth.gr
School of Geology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki
Mineral raw materials are crucial for the development of the modern societies, the environmentally friendly technologies and the Hi-Tech industrial products. Without them, there wouldn’t be any smartphones, laptops, or cars. They are extracted from large open pits or underground mines. Greece has a very unique geological history! The subduction of Africa beneath Eurasia is one of the most important geological phenomena in the world accompanied by volcanoes and earthquakes. Volcanoes in Aegean did not bring only disasters. Their action caused numerous mineral deposits, which have been used by the inhabitants since the Prehistoric times. Many Aegean islands were very wealthy thanks to the mineral raw materials.

“Earthquake Safety Tips”, Georgios Chatzigeorgiou, biology teacher, 2nd General Lyceum of Oreokastro
What is an earthquake? Do all earthquakes cause problems? What do we need to do to be prepared to deal with an earthquake?
An earthquake is a natural phenomenon that often affects Greece and other countries on the planet. Most earthquakes that occur in our country do not cause any particular problems, but some are very strong and have an impact on humans and buildings.
The Earthquake Planning and Protection Agency recommends that we be prepared to be able to protect ourselves during an earthquake and also to have the appropriate anti-earthquake behavior after the vibration.

STEM & IBSE in action: earthquakes and engineering in the classroom.
Eftychia Karagianni, Science teacher-Physicist,,& Christos, Alexakis, Mathematician, 2nd General Lyceum of Oreokastro
As concerning the European Erasmus+ Programme, our school, the 2nd General Lyceum of Oreokastro is planning to run a STEM lesson titled “Earthquakes & Engineering in the classroom”. Although we cannot escape earthquakes, as they can happen in any unpredictable time, we can resist them by designing anti-seismic buildings (hospitals, houses, skyscrapers, bridges, roads etc).
Engineers use small or full-scale models to investigate a structure’s response to an earthquake: how safe would the building be in an earthquake and how could it be improved. The STEM lesson that we’ll be carried out in our school is based upon the above idea and it includes 3 activities.

5th Day Report
Students worked in international teams on creating a leaflet/booklet about the most important tips/pieces of advice on what to do Before, During and After an earthquake. They also took their own pictures depicting those tips and then presented their work to the whole e-HAND team.
After the presentation of Alexandros Terzopoulos’s scientific paper “Nitrates…”, the teachers of the seven schools had a meeting to evaluate the meeting and plan the next steps of the project.

4th Day Report
On Thursday 26th April we had an educational trip to Mount Olympus and the Centre of Environmental Education of Eastern Olympus. We were informed about the activities and all the projects the centre is involved in and then enjoyed a few kilometers’ hike in the woods of the notorious mountain.
In the afternoon, we visited and were guided through the treasures of the Museum of Vergina and the Ancient Macedonian Royal Tombs of Aiges.
