Given the financial crisis situation in Greece, there is a growing need to intervene with children at a young age, not only to navigate the financial crisis per se, but to build a better world for the future. The aim of this paper is to share with the educational community the attempt of a group of six graders in a Greek elementary school to develop a community of self-directed learners and their achievements in a wiki environment.
