Aims and Objectives
The main objectives of this project proposal are related to capacity building of school age students through an innovative methodology which will promote good and healthy use of the new technologies, identify relevant sources of information, appropriate to the age of minors and, at the same time, promote positive relationships between peers, encourage critical thinking, awareness of existing risks and at the same time promote respect for others in values such as equality, diversity and non-discrimination. This methodology, that will involve directly students, will help raise awareness and inform them about the possible negative aspects and effects of misusing social and digital media. In the digital era skills and competences related to the use of the Internet are crucial. This is especially valid for disadvantaged people who often lack basic skills and knowledge in this field and don´t have access to tools, information and guidance on how to use ICT´s in a healthy way, avoiding misuse.
