Project Summary

The main aim of this project to bring the bullies-victims together to achieve the same target by working in a group as a team in the project Cycling Club. They will be members of the same club and enjoyable activities such as to discover cycling route on the historical place way in hometown, to attend cycling tours, to prepare a cycling route booklet, to be bloggers. They will take part in the activities by their own cycling, writing, and drawing skills. Thanks to this project the bullies will learn to use their strength by helping the others carry their bicycles or cherry up instead of bullying them because they will be the same team.Also the victims will gain self-confident by sharing their own idea to create a cycling route or knowledge of history or usage of map. This project will contribute to habits of cooperation between bullies and victims to reduce the bullying problems at schools.*Before applying to Erasmus+project,we have started this project on E-Twinning portal to strengthen our partnership and raise awareness of bullying problem at our schools.All partners have brainstormed about the solution and activities via mail group.*5 Transnational Meetings are planning with participating 4 teachers and 6 students(contist of the target group) Participant teachers (P.E,Language,Counselor ,History,Geography teachers) will responsible for carrying out the project as the project team.Discovering foreign cultures, meeting new people, travelling abroad will be a great incentive for the target group (bullies and victims) to attend the project activities and to decide to change their bad behaviors and improve themselves.*Both qualitative and quantitative methods will be used for achieve the project purpose. Cooperative Learning,Inquiry-based learning are the main techniqes in this project because it is important to emphasizes group work and a strong sense of community for us.The Interpersonal Intelligence and The Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence, Body/Kinesthetic Role playing, co-operative learning, Interpersonal Co-operative tasks, multiplayer games, group work, pair work techniques will be used to achieve our aim (bringing bullies and victims together to do activities as a team).To improve the target group’s social skills will be carried out during the cycling club activities. The members of the cycling club who have with high interpersonal intelligence communicate effectively and empathize easily with others, and may be either leaders or followers.*Each organisation will have their own Cycling Club to gather bullies, victims, teachers, even parents together by means of its biking tours activities. The counselor service at each organisation will have their statistical analyses because of the sample high school bullying questionnaire study. Therefore, they will be able to keep under control all studies and follow the progress of students who are called bullies and victims. Moreover, because of reducing the bullying and violence cases in progress of time, students and teachers will be able to focus on education at school. This project will give both bullies and victims a reason to love their own school. Each organization will have their own bike garage to be kept students’ bicycles at school for doing activities of the Cycling Club.All participant organisations will be able to take precautions in every area inside or outside the schools since they will have learnt that bullying can occur in any places. This project will increase the usage of cycling among the students, teachers and even parents as an inspirer element.*In the long term, to be able to overcome or reduce bullying problems at school will impact both social and business lives of victims or bullies in a positive way. Because victims will get rid of being unsociable and self-enclosed. Also, bullies will give up mobbing.Thanks to one of the project dissemination activities,Tourism Information Offices in hometowns of the participants will have a biking route on the way of historical places(The City Bike Route) and this booklet will be useful for someone who like cycling holiday to discover new cultures and places.
