The “Shield of Achilles” is an effort to teach in an interdisciplinary way both the teaching subjects of Ancient Greek (Omer’s Iliad) and Informatics (3D modelling and printing), that took place in the 1st Junior High School of Vrilissia, Athens, during the school year 2017-2018 [13]. Students of B grade of Junior High School (ages 13-14), on a voluntarily basis, separated into groups of 4, created in a 3D design environment the “Shield of Achilles” as were taught during the subject of Ancient Greek and according to the description of the shield given by Homer in his poem “Iliad”.

No change in educational administration or in educational policy in the last fifty years has offered so great an opportunity for improvement in high-school mathematics as the organization of the junior high school. But as we felicitate ourselves upon the possibilities we need to remember that many of the changes now taking place were advocated by leaders thirty years ago. There is a striking similarity between some recommendations of the National Committee on the Reorganization of Mathematics in Secondary Education published in 1923 and the Report of the Commission on Mathematics of the Committee of Fifteen in 1893. There were seers on that Commission headed by Simon Newcomb and we are just catching up with their vision. That educational administration has made this advance is due to the study and appreciation of the varying needs and abilities of pupils and the demands of a scientific age. That mathematics teachers in 1926 are accepting changes advocated thirty years ago is due in large part to the work of the International Commission on the Teaching of Mathematics and the work of the National Committee. Every teacher of secondary mathematics should own and read the Report of the National Committee, the best text that 1 know on the teaching of the subject; and every one should know of the significance of the work of the International Commission.
