For the evaluation of good practice in Unit 3, we used the questionnaire which is shown below.

​Link to the questionnaire

The questionnaire was answered by 14 teachers from the project countries.

For 92.9% of the teachers, the approach of the activity is appropriate for the age of our students; it is well organised and clearly explained; the proposed objectives were achieved; the resources and materials provided were useful; and the students were motivated by the activity.

All of them think that the contents of the programme are appropriate and related to the topic of Prevention of cyberbullying. 

78.6% of the teaching staff consider that the timeframe for carrying out the activity (3 months) is adequate for the development of the activity.

Regarding to possitive comments teachers have commented on which of the activities carried out in our schools they liked the most. The got feedback from their students.

• "We liked the moment of creation of the standard with assemblies; we liked it when the teacher explained the rules of assembly to us and we have to guess the rule behind each drawing; we liked the gathering about the reading The Club of the Braves; the pictures in the story were very creative; we loved that all classes had a fortnightly meeting via video call to exchange our work; the posters with the rules of the Assembly".
• "In primary school, activities related to bullying and upstanders".
• Teachers highlights the promotion of the following values: cooperation, motivation, team spirit, respect and non-violence. "Students enjoyed the tale that we read about the bullying and talking about the feelings and reactions of the people in conflict situation".

Concerning difficulties or drawbacks teachers suggested the following:

• "It would be lovely to have the book (the real one) in our schools".
• "Some difficulties with technologies (downloading images) and sometimes the sound of video calls was not quality".
• "For a small group of children, in the initial phase, it was difficult to talk about some situations they experienced firsthand".
• "Some difficulties related to the language".

Teachers suggested some changes such as:

• Designing more large and collaborative posters.
• A more easy to follow translation of the spanish video could be helpful.

Finally teachers and students made some observations such as:

• "Children absolutely love the activities".
• "We would like more frequency in the project classes".
• "The themes thrilled the children, who participated with great interest and involvement in the proposed works".
• "It was a great experience".
• "It is not easy to implement a brand new method to a school where there are some actions already made against bullying with rather different approaches (peer mediation based on nonviolent communication, in our case).

On a scale of 0 to 10, satisfaction with the programme was 9.29 points.

Reading and learning from the Club of the Braves

We are 5th grade A students and we all love meetings to share our reading feelings.

Three years ago we learnt how to follow the rules in this special meetings that we shared in our class.

Here, we explain how we celebrate this meetings.

Firstly, we have to check that all students have read the same part of the book and after that, we remember the rules for a correct participation.

Finally, the moderator, who is always a student, gives turns to speak about each page and one by one share their reflections with the rest. We can answer and feedback our classmate opinions but we cannot judge them. And of course, the moderator has to establish an order of participation.

In our assemblies there is a grandma who loves reading. Her name is Carmen and she is a writer too and she enriches our meetings because she finds wonderful words that make all of us reflect deeply.

After reading the book "the Club of the Braves" we made great thought about the unfair situation at Samuel's school and here you can see our pictures and why we had chosen them. We hope you like them because we did this activity plenty of excitement.

"The Club of the Braves", 4ºB

     Somos nuevos por aquí y estamos encantados de poder leeros y también de poder compartir nuestra pequeña aportación con todos vosotros.

    Después de leer el libro titulado "El Club de los Valientes", los alumnos de la clase de 4º B nos sentimos un poquito más afortunados. Os contamos porqué. Con su historia no solo hemos aprendido a ser más valientes, también hemos aprendido a ser mejores seres humanos.

    Hemos comprendido que los problemas no se solucionan con amenazas, que no tenemos que cumplir las órdenes de los demás por miedo, que los problemas se solucionan de forma pacífica sin utilizar la fuerza, ya que utilizar la fuerza es de cobardes.

    También hemos aprendido que cuando las cosas se "ponen feas" tenemos a personas a nuestro alrededor dispuestas a ayudarnos, solo que a veces tenemos que pedir esa ayuda. Formando nuestro propio club podemos vencer al miedo y ser más valientes que nunca.

Valientes, si alguna vez necesitáis ayuda, no dudéis en pedirla. Nosotros, estamos aquí, a vuestro lado.

Drawings about the Club of the Braves

Once we have read the book and/or watched the video of "The Club of the Brave", each class has creatively worked on the characters and scenes of the story.

In the case of the 5th D and 5th E classes, the pupils have chosen to draw pictures which we have captured in a Google presentation and which we share below. We hope you like the final result.

The works have been presented in the cybersecurity class we hold on fortnightly Mondays. The rest of the groups will present their final products in this or future publications.
