Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become very useful for everyday activity, communication, commerce, entertainment, etc. Especially the Internet has a tremendous potential and a lot to offer in terms of services. It is an evolving medium that continuously presents new functionalities, such as web 2.0 tools that can even be effectively used in education and learning. However, like every other innovation in science and technology, it comes along with its own disadvantages so it is important that students learn how to use it properly. We have seen that it is essential for the school community (students and teachers, even parents) to develop the right attitude towards the internet and ICT tools. Most students (even some teachers) are completely unaware of dangers, safety risks, security matters, health matters and matters of ethics that are related to the use of the Internet. It is important that all students receive e-safety education at school. Teachers play a key role in supporting students to learn about how to stay safe online while they learn, create and communicate and they also need further training in order to ensure they have the knowledge and confidence to deliver e-safety education and respond to any safety issues. Our project focuses on making the school community aware of the dangers and risks of the Internet, on informing, educating and preparing students and teachers in ways to cope with these. We believe that through the project activities we will raise awareness and deliver safety messages to students and their parents. This project will help our schools to develop an e-safety policy and will support the development of functional and critical digital literacy and internet safety skills. The project is a strategic partnership among schools which will explore and study contact and content risks of ICT and especially Internet tools concerning our students. The schools participating are the 2nd Lyceum of Kos (Greece – coordinator), Fridagymnasiet (Sweden), HAK Ybbs (Austria), Liceum Ogolnoksztalcace im. Piotra Skargi (Poland) and Os vidaregåande skule (Norway) and teachers and students from these schools will concentrate on aspects of security, safety and ethics concerning the use of ICT and Internet. Five different exchanges will be held in each country, each dealing with a different dimension of the matter. During each exchange the following matters will be dealt with: 1st: (Austria) Internet addictions (such as excessive use of social networks, gaming and gambling). 2nd: (Norway) matters concerning health (such as social isolation, depression, etc). 3rd: (Sweden) security (viruses and malware, spam, phishing, etc). 4th: (Greece) matters of ethics (copyright, plagiarism, legal issues, etc). 5th: (Poland) safety (cyberbullying, grooming, etc). Before each meeting there will be an appropriate preparation of the teacher and student teams that will meet, concerning presentations, collection of stats and data, relevant research results, etc. During each meeting there all groups will participate in activities relevant to the specific theme of the meeting, as described above. After each meeting there will be follow up activities such as courses organized by students, presentations, dissemination activities, evaluation activities. It is expected that the project will help students and teachers to: • Recognize online risks • Protect personal information and reputation • Learn where and how to get help • Demonstrate and advocate for ethical and legal behaviors • To learn about plagiarism • Respect copyright • Make ethical and legal decisions After the meetings, through specific activities during which student will act as teachers for their peers, it is expected to increase student engagement and foster an authentic sense of urgency around their education. Opportunities for students to explore teaching and learning in a new and remixed way will be created. Students will have opportunities to publicly share their own understanding, thus fostering authentic dialogue about what they learned. These processes will be enhanced through reflection. Additionally there will also be 3 transnational teacher meetings (one in the beginning, one in the end of the first year and one in the end of the second year) that will help organize and manage the meetings and evaluate the project. Evaluation will be done after each meeting and during the transnational teacher meetings. The project will also promote the professional development of teachers concentrating on the strategic use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). For this purpose we will create a Community of Practice, using web 2.0 among teachers participating in the project. Among other the project will promote take-up of innovative practices in education, collaborative learning and critical thinking, open and flexible learning, virtual mobility and other innovative learning methods.
