Zarotis* University of the Aegean, Faculty of Human Sciences, Rhodes, Greece *Corresponding Author Dr. George F. Zarotis Article History Received: 14.12.2019 Accepted: 24.12.2019 Published: 30.12.2019 Abstract: After analyzing various studies, we can conclude that the elements characterizing an effective school unit are leadership, teachers, and communication among school unit members, the climate of a school unit, school culture, the logistical infrastructure, the school's relationship with the local community, and the administrative system of the educational institution. The ultimate goal of this research is to detect the current organization and administration situation of secondary education units. In particular, to examine the concept of education, the school role and the concept of effective school, to identify the existing model of administration of the educational system, the organization and administration models of the school unit in which the respondents work, and furthermore the school culture level. The method adopted for the study is the classified cluster sampling method. According to this method, clusters are initially defined, which in this case are Secondary School Units. The clusters are then classified according to their characteristics, which in this case was the geographical feature: they all belonged to the North Aegean Region.

  • Objectives and Preliminary Results from Crete

    Objectives and Preliminary Results from Crete

    Anastasia G. Yangaki Τhe Immured Vessels in Byzantine and Post-Byzantine Churches of Greece Research Programme: objectives and preliminary results from Crete Abstract The study presents the preliminary observations from the “Immured vessels in Byzantine and Post-Byzantine churches of Greece” research programme with a focus on immured vessels in churches on Crete. It refers to the areas where this practice is most widespread, to the most common patterns in which the vessels are placed on church façades, and to the different categories of glazed wares used asbacini . Particular interest is paid to the reasons why bacini are used and to the importance of their study, not only for this particular aspect of the material culture of Crete, but also for the additional information they provide about the monuments they adorn. Keywords: Immured vessels, bacini, churches, glazed pottery, Venetian and Early Modern periods, Crete I. Introduction ‒ General information on the research programme Although the practice of embedding glazed open clay vessels in patterns on the exterior walls of ‒ mostly religious ‒ buildings has been noted in various areas (for example: Berti, Tongiorgi, Tongiorgi 1983, 35), the most systematic research conducted to date has been in Italy. The pioneering composite studies conducted by G. Berti and L. Tongiorgi on vessels immured in churches in Pisa are included among the numerous relevant studies1 (Berti, Tongiorti 1981; Berti 1992, 133-172). In the territories of what is now Greece, although this form of decoration was identified very early by scholars of Byzantine architecture, with the earliest references dating from the first half of the 20th c.
