Safer Internet Day in Poland

On 10th February pupils of the secondary school in Grójec took part in workshops organized by the High School of Information Technology in Warsaw. The aim of these workshops was to emphasise how and why to respect the privacy of internet users.

During on-line lecture (by Marta Różycka and Zuzanna Polak) various problems connected with internet safety were raised, such as the multiplicity of personal information on the net and the lack of awareness about the possible dangers while using the net.

For pupils especially important seemed to be the information about the of posting different data on the net, setting the accounts and safety procedures while using different websites.

After the workshops students willingly did on-line tests and got the certificates of attendance in these workshops.

The initiative to organize the Safer Internet Day in our school has also been reported to the Polish Safer Internet Centre (www.saferinternet.pl).

Dissemination Activities - Norway meeting - 2nd Lyceum of Kos

Informing 2nd Lyceum of Kos Teachers’ board about the meeting in Norway and the visit to OSVIDEREGÅENDE SKOLE, in the context of ERASMUS+ SIFA (Safe Internet For All)

On Friday 20 February the Greek team who visited Os in Norway presented highlights of the meeting in Norway in the context of the project SIFA (Safe Internet For All) ERASMUS+.

The teachers of 2nd Lyceum of Kos were informed about the journey, the activities and the workshops of the program, accommodation conditions, the partners’ schools, the educational system of Norway, how ICT is integrated in teaching in Norwegian schools and last but not least the results and the conclusions of the meeting.

The meeting in Os focused on health problems that are related to excessive use of internet. We believe that useful workshops and experts’ lectures gave the opportunity to both students and teachers to broaden their knowledge and to raise their awareness about the specific subject.

In the same time they had the opportunity to gain knowledge of different cultural practices and world views, developing positive attitudes towards cultural differences. Through respectful and reciprocal relationships they developed skills for communication and interaction across cultures.

The meeting programme summary

Visit in Norway, SIFA Erasmus+ Project, Health

8-14.02.2015

Sunday, 8th February, 2015

On Sunday we got up very early. We went to Warsaw by car. As you know in Poland it’s cold now, but in Norway it’s sometimes very freezing. When we arrived we needed to take a bus because we had another flight from Oslo. Finally, we arrived in Bergen. It’s the second biggest city in Norway. Some of us had to take a bus to go to Os. But some host families picked us up from the airport as well. So I went with my hosts to their house. The ‘trip’ wasn’t so long. They don’t live in the center so this district is very quiet. We had supper together and I told my host family about Poland. We spent that evening in a very interesting way.

Monday, 9th February 2015

The first day in Norway was… intensive. After breakfast in our host families, we were in school (in the red cross building exactly) at about 8.40. School here always starts this time. At the beginning, we had the ‘get to know’ activities. We built towers with spaghetti and marshmallows and we made international groups with people around us. For example a group of people, who like the same animals or whose birthday is in the same month. We also had a presentation of results from the special questionnaire for Norway – the same which we completed in our school. After lunch, we had workshops in teams. Each person was from another country. We had to make a film or a photo story connected with the topics which we had been given. My group said that we had to know each other to start the project so on Monday. We were talking about muscles in fingers and schools in different countries… At 14 o’clock there was a lecture about how huge influence of computer addiction is on obesity, depression etc. At 18 o’clock we watched a really good movie – ‘Her’. That was about a man who was in love with a very intelligent and emotional OS (operating system). We spent the rest of the day with our host families’ houses. (e.g. I watched a film with my host Mariell, her boyfriend and my flatmate – a girl from Sweden).

Polish students' memories from Norway

'The week in Norway was great fun. The activities were organized well so we had enough free time and time for work. My family was very hospitable. I felt so good there in this family atmosphere. The places which we visited I'll remember for a long time, the view of Bergen at night is amazing. This trip was great practice of my English skills. I hope that new relationships will last forever and we will have an opportunity to meet again offline.'

Szymon

'In my opinion the trip to Norway was a good lesson for all of us. We learned how to use safe internet, we had a lot of exercises to improve our knowledge, but we also saw a different culture. In Norway there is better technology, so it was pleasure to see it. Now we know how people live there. For me the organization was very good. I would like to thank my host Lars Ulvar and his whole family for being so kind to me and for making me feel at home. If someone asks me: Do you want go to Norway once again? I will definitely answer… YES.'
