PROJET
TERMINÉ
Information and communication technologies move the world and social media have become an important part of our lives. They influence people´s mind and behaviour. They make our lives easier and more enjoyable, but on the other hand they can be easily misused to manipulate people from an early age. The fact that teenagers spend most of their free time on social media is alarming. They use social networks for social interaction. Our project is the reflection of the fact that teenagers don´t spend their free time effectively and meaningfully, they confuse virtual world with reality and tend to be dependent on their performance on social media what might lead to negative phenomenon and decrease the quality of their lives. What is more, some of the risky behaviour such as casual sex, drug abuse and some kinds of bullying are shown as exciting and cool on social networks. Teenagers challenge themselves with the activities that are actually meaningful. Such kind of behaviour leads to unconcern, disrespect and selfishness among the people. Teenagers are becoming the members of different groups on social media which influence their personal development in a very negative way. Sometimes they are motivated by the curiosity and they don´t find their behaviour harmful, but from different point of view they push the limits of aggression and manipulation. We need to make teenagers think, be critical and make them more responsible for their lives and the society in general. There is no doubt that social media and networks connect people. However, they can make people isolated in reality too. We believe that this project is essential to point out all the risks of social media and networks. And on the other hand show the possibilities how we can use them for the benefit of people because they are no doubtly the source of information that we can get very easily. However we need to sort out this information and learn how to use social media and networks for our benefits. The target group of our projects are the youngsters from 15 to 19 years old. We have chosen this target group because we think they are the most vulnarable and easily manipulated and they need to be shown differences. The main aim of our youth exchange that will be between 15th and 23rd October 2016 (including travel days) is to prevent and eliminate the risky behaviour of the youth in the social media. Each organization will join the exchange with 5 youngsters and 1 youth worker. The objectives are the following: Throught this project we want to improve the key competences and skills of young people so that they will develop their personalities To promote solidarity, respect, tolerance and intercultural dialogue with the focus to raise participants´awareness to responsibilities for their own lives through working on the same topic To make participating organizations more recognasible, attractive and competitive in their areas, improve the quality of the youth work and promote active youth participationTo Exchange ideas and good practise examples to be able to offer the activities that are progressive, motivating and challenging for the other participants To promote ICT - new technologies with the emphasis on digital competences Monitor and analyse the behaviour and performance of teenagers on social networks (before the exchange)Point out risky behaviour on social networks and possible negative consequences for the society in general (before the exchange)Promote effective use of social media and encourage the participants to be more responsible users of the internetShare experiences between different countries to support well-being and personal development of the participantsAnalyse the groups active on social networks focusing on environmental changes study , economic crisis and changes in the world and preparing activities related to this topicAnalyse the groups active on social networks that present extreme ideas and ideologies and preparing activities related to this topic with the aim to prevent people from manipulation. The main methods through which the project will be developed are ice-breaking games, energizers and group building activities. We will also promote peer to peer learning, learning by doing, role plays, simulations, social experiments and different discussions. The result of the exchange will be videos, videospots and materials prepared by mixed international groups which will point out risky behaviour on social media and promote effective use of social media by the youth and general public.
