Abstract
This paper focuses on exploring the perceptions expressed by students at the University of Ioannina, Greece, after the completion of their graduate education practice in State Secondary schools in the city of Ioannina. More specifically, it provides insight into the impact the school logistics infrastructure had on the teaching process and its valorization by the educators. The results of the research demonstrate that, except for the Model Experimental Schools, the State Secondary Schools are lacking not only in necessary technological equipment but also in special teaching classrooms, which, in turn, entails the teachers’ inability to valorize technological means and upgrade the teaching process applying student-centered, experiential didactic techniques.

Students, in this case, have to be seen as entities with special, personal experiences, abilities and knowledge. Taking into consideration the fact that the contemporary economic, social and technological challenges in the global environment, inevitably, affect, among other aspects of life, education, especially as regards the educational contents, practices, or logistics infrastructure that can be valorized in schools, what this paper investigates is the extent to which school logistics infrastructure is utilized by Secondary Schools teachers, the means and the selected teaching techniques applied as well as its influence on the educational process. On completion of our literature review, no similar work has been recorded in Greece, we consider that this paper contributes to the scientific research by presenting new data drawn in a field so far unexplored
