Respect in the Cyberspace: Learning about respect and carrying it forward
This is a short term awareness-raising project aimed at empowering students to benefit from the positive aspects of the Internet, mobile technologies and social networking whilst avoiding the potential risks when interacting in the cyberspace which offers teenagers lots of new virtual places to meet friends and socialize. Issues of respect, personal data protection, privacy, online grooming, cyberbullying, copyrights, electronic spamming will be covered through a variety of activities and micro research projects carried out collaboratively by different eTwinning groups. We will make inquiries, interview teenagers and parents, make awareness-raising videos and leaflets on the issues, organise a competition for short story or poem writing. In the end of the project, school can promote an e-safety workshop or conference in their schools to disseminate the results of the project addressed to other students and parents for example.
