Project Summary

Our social project was written as a result of our Social Media Behaviours Analyze Questionnaire,which we needed to apply at our school.Our questionnaire was prepared and applied after observing our students being interested in their moblie phones,not only in their freetime like breaks but also during their lessons,which showed negative consequences like cyberbullying,negative self-image and body image,less time spent doing healthy,real-world activities,unawareness of effects of Social Media Platforms.After analyzing the questionnaire we evaluated the outcomes in our school.As a result we developed this project in order to experience and analyze social media behaviour similarities and differences between European country students and our students.With comparing the questionnaire results of all partner countries,we want to detect in which way European country students differ from ours according to usage and addicton of social media platforms.If the results of the questionnaires of any of our partner schools are lower than ours,we want to experience the reasons on the spot and transfer the better implementations.Also,we want our students,especially those with fewer opportunities, to experience European culture and life style and give them the opportunity to approach different cultures with tolerance.Students will form new friendships with different cultures and a different language and will suport the sustainability of the project and its outcomes.Especially students from disadvantaged groups will get the opportunity to widen their horizon and express themselves among foreign students.We will form bridges between cultures and lifestyles,with forming strong bonds with Europe.While representing their countries with self-confidence,all participants will gain a rich,cultural,equipped, unprejudiced and concious accumulation with increasing their quantity and quality.Internationalisation will become an important subject in the life of students. Teachers will have the possibility to observe what kind of solutions their colleagues produce to this problem.

Turkey,Italy,Portugal,Slovenia,Lithuania and Latvia who met at eTwinning and Erasmus+ Partner Seach Platform are partners in this project.Each partner country school will choose 3 students for each mobility.These students will be chosen according to their interests in ICT and English and their level of social media usage and addiction.2 teachers will attend each mobility.

– Each partner school’s teachers will carry out our questionnaire which we carried out with our students before and the results and analyzes will be evaluated as a presentation and suggestions will be offered at each mobility.
– In order to transfer the good practices,an ICT lesson activity will be prepared by each partner school.
– At each partner school,a group of students will prepare a presentation about the decided topics
TURKEY: Digital Security-Safe Internet
LATVIA: Future’s Technology Classes
SLOVENİA: Digital Communication
ITALY: Digital Commerce ( e-Commerce )
LITHUANIA: Digital Rights and Responsibilities
PORTUGAL: 3-D Technologies

In each mobility all participating students will be divided into groups and carry out and analyze a questionnaire,which will be prepared by each partner team about ” Social Media Usage of People on the Streets” .

Our methods will be Game Based Learning,Communicative Method,Colloboration,Motivation and Creativity,Visual-Audial Slide Shows,Student centered Group works,Research and Brain Storm.

Partner schools of the project will get information about social network usage of the other schools and transfer the good practices to their own. Necessary precautions will be taken towards teenagers addicted to internet and social media.Partner schools will carry on their relationship even after the project. Our project will have a great impact on many students around Europe.As some of the students will come from disadvanteged groups,this project will be an opportunity for them to learn about European countries,cultures and lifestyles.All students will be able to practice their foreign language with their peers.This project will raise awareness among students at the same age in the field of Social Network Behaviours,Addiction,Usage and Cyberbullying.They will share and spread their experiences and wake up interest towards Erasmus+ projects. While working in a team,students will learn to socialise,express themselves,create opinions,speak in a foreign language and improve their self-confidence.
