Regarding the investigation of the introduction of non-verbal communication in the Greek educational system, a literature review in all relevant Greek published books, articles, conference proceedings and dissertations has been conducted, following the method of content analysis. Results: The content analysis revealed that in Greece, during the last two decades, only a few books have been published focusing on some research aspects of nonverbal communication in education. Many articles in journals and conference proceedings and just four doctoral theses have been published too. Conclusion: The research on non-verbal communication in Greek education is still at an early stage and thus, needs great reinforcement because the specificity of non-verbal communication as a pedagogical strategy.
