Abstract: | Abstract This article describes the educational environment of the oldest agricultural educational institution in Greece. At the American Farm School of Thessaloniki (hereafter AFS), a secondary school program is running together with a post-secondary program and a variety of continuing training activities. Throughout the paper a comparison between the AFS educational practice and some well-known models of curriculum is made. The comparison leads to a better understanding of the framework under which the AFS offers education. This is important since no other similar institution in Greece serves three educational levels simultaneously. |
