“Exploring the building of Ilios Melathros”
As part of the educational activities of the Numismatic Museum, an educational brochure entitled “Exploring the Building of Ilios Melathros” was designed for the educational program of the same name, which has been posted on the Museum’s website.
The educational material is aimed at students aged 12-14 and focuses on introducing them to the Numismatic Museum, the coin, the building of Ilios Melathros, and Ernest Ziller. At the same time, it also helps to raise awareness of the continuity of our cultural heritage. The brochure has been designed based on the Ekarv method and is structured into three main sections, while the individual objectives of the educational material concern the students’ familiarization with the museum environment, contact with the world of coinage, the cultivation of their artistic expression and creativity, as well as the enhancement of group-collaborative learning.
Gianni Rodari writes that: “if we want to teach someone to think, we must first teach them to invent.” It is worth clarifying that the design of the activities of this educational publication was based on the content and objectives of the school curriculum.
