C2 Poland: 24th to 28th of February, 2020

POLAND MOBILITY

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

During the week of 24th to 28th February we carried out our second mobility of the project "Cybersecurity Schools" which was entitled: Privacy on the Net and healthy use of electronic devices. During five days, students and teachers developed the following contents:

Presentation of each organization to the entire educational community with photos, videos, etc.
Presentation of the facilities of the educational center.
Workshop for students and teachers on privacy and communication on the Internet.
Cultural visits to the Croissant Museum and the Potato Museum.
Workshop for students and teachers on the healthy use of mobile devices.
Visit to the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at Adam Mickiewicz University.
Sports competition in the school facilities (activity for students).
Workshop for students and teachers on the care of the digital identity.
Science and technology labs at Adam Mickiewicz University.
Workshop for students and teachers: Making a lapbook about Poznan.
Closure of the programme and teaching activities.

The methodology was characterized by:

The design of workshops with a pedagogical basis of Problem-Based Learning. The starting point was a problem situation posed in the classroom, and the students' need to solve it through a project was created. Skills were encouraged to search for information, predict results, or create possible solutions. One of the workshops that responded to this design was the activity of creating a Role Playing in groups to respond to a situation that in turn alluded to risks related to privacy on the Internet.
Designing activities to be solved in a collaborative way in small international groups of students.
To have activities organized on the basis of team learning, led by fellow experts in the subject or task, and which encouraged discussion or debate in small groups of 8 - 10 students.
Have mentoring processes offered by the host students that inspired their peers, helping them acquire the information and skills needed to complete the activities. It was not a matter of doing the activities with them.

The results of this activity have been a greater knowledge and cohesion of the group, increasing the intercultural competence among the students who participated in the activities. The activities promoted face-to-face contact and mutual knowledge of the partners, greatly favouring the development of foreign language, intrapersonal and interpersonal skills. Significant learning was achieved through real or fictitious communication situations; as well as awareness and training in the areas of privacy on the Internet and healthy use of mobile devices.

Teachers and students from 5 of the 6 organizations that are part of the project participated in the mobility. Italy could not participate due to force majeure caused by the global pandemic COVID-19. A total of 17 students from Spain (5), Hungary (4), Romania (4) and Turkey (4) participated.

BENEFITS FOR PARTICIPANTS

The activity was perfectly integrated into the school in Poznan. The welcome activity, an "Alice in Wonderland" theatre, had a considerable amount of previous work done by students and teachers. The same can be said of the previous work of organisation and planning of the programme of activities by the coordinator and the management team; of the decoration of the corridors with motifs from each of the participating countries; of the distribution of the spaces to develop each of the activities (gymnasium, assembly hall, computer room, teachers' room...), or of how emotional and beautiful the closing was. In all cases we were able to see how integrated the project is among the teachers and students in Poznan.
Thanks to the development of this activity, the participants involved benefit from aspects such as:

The development of personal and interpersonal skills typical of an exchange activity between students and teachers.
Healthy use of mobile devices by students. The experience was very positive. All the students complied favorably with the agreement with their families through a contract of use.
The strengthening of the bonds of friendship between students and teachers, improving language skills in English.
Increasing our knowledge about cyber security on Internet privacy and healthy use of mobile devices; through specific workshops at school, and activities developed at the University.
The importance of our participation in European key action projects 229.
The collaboration of all the participants through a program of activities that stimulated it.
The exchange of good teaching-learning practices with teachers from other countries.
The professional development of the teaching staff when having to give classes to international groups of students.
