On May 31, the students Helping ICT from the Educational Research and Innovation project #Stop Cyberbullying: Good use of ICT and the Internet, gave a keynote speech to families. The objective of this activity is to raise awareness and sensitize families and disseminate the project. The families welcomed the talk by the students at the Casa de la Cultura and described it as highly positive.
The main objective of this Educational Innovation Project is to raise awareness and sensitize both students and families about the correct use of technologies and that they know and reflect on the risks and dangers of the Internet and social networks, such as grooming, phishing , sexting, identity theft, addiction to screens… from the point of view of cybersecurity and against cyberbullying.
The “ICT Helpers”, 6th grade student volunteers, through peer learning and service learning, helped us achieve this goal with their talks and reflections in the classes during tutoring hours using videos, slides and powerpoints created by them and them.
With this method, based on peer learning and peer support, service learning is promoted and developed in our Center, that is, students learn a series of concepts and values and, at the same time, apply them to serve and help the entire Educational Community.
The “ICT Helpers” students make a self-assessment of their intervention in a playful and dynamic way, using some mobile-shaped pallets. Finally, they carry out a research process through questions, with the aim of analyzing the use they make of technologies outside the school environment for statistical purposes.
