Cyber - guides




Cyber - guides, is another of the pillars of the project that contributes to equal opportunities for all participants and with innovative character includes several agents of the educational community in the processes of teaching - learning of our students.

Within our Erasmus project this activity is included in what we call in our application "cultural activities". It aims to give participants the opportunity to know and learn about each country, its culture, geography, cities, heritage and traditions; to give the opportunity to talk, compare and exchange all these cultural aspects. We believe that the best way to carry out this task is through a service-learning methodology and peer-to-peer learning.  

The activity is also justified within the program "Junior Emprende" of the Junta de Extremadura that our school participated in previous courses and that this year we take up again with great enthusiasm. Among the objectives it pursues are:
  • To discover and promote entrepreneurial skills in a transversal way (creativity, autonomy, teamwork...)
  • To encourage a methodology based on project learning.
  • To facilitate the creation of a network of teachers.
  • To encourage students' interest in their environment and their ability to intervene in it.
  • To work on the basis of meaningful learning to encourage the generalization of what has been learned.
Within our Erasmus project the implementation of this activity helps us to achieve objectives 1, 2, 3 and 11:
  • To improve oral and written comprehension in English.
  • To give security and autonomy to shy students who do not feel safe in face-to-face communication.
  • To allow students of all nationalities to meet students from the countries participating in the project: Hungary, Italy, Poland, Romania and Turkey.
  • To develop international skills by sharing our heritage among the communities of the participating schools.
Therefore, the cyber-guides are 18 students from 5th grade of Primary Education who will be preparing to be tourist guides in the city of Merida during the week of the Cybersecurity Congress (May 2021) as well as in previous activities that we will program during the next two years.

The activity has been received with great enthusiasm by the students. Although this type of activity has its own specific blog, from this one we will also report on the entire work process and the final products we obtain. In addition, on the right side of our blog we will put the logo for anyone who wants to know the aspects of the activity in greater depth.
