Περίληψη (Αγγλική μετάφραση) This research study focused on the design, implementation, and evaluation of a comprehensive intervention in the context of supplementary school-based distance education (DE), aiming to enrich the teaching of German as a foreign language to lower secondary school students through interactive educational material centered on digital storytelling and augmented reality applications. Specifically, the intervention explored the use of digital storytelling in German language instruction and the development of intercultural awareness. The material was original, research-based, and pedagogically designed in accordance with DE principles. The tools h5p and Chamilo were utilized for its development, while a location-based augmented reality game was integrated via the Actionbound application as a self-assessment activity.
The evaluation of the material was conducted through qualitative research, using purposive sampling and open-ended questionnaires, at two levels: by experts in the field and by secondary school students who participated in the intervention. Data analysis was based on the method of qualitative content analysis. The findings indicated that the educational material was interactive, user-friendly, and engaging, aligned with the principles of distance education and enhancing the learning experience of the participants.
