Pedalogica: educación y TIC

A new initiative has been launched to provide information and support for pupils, parents and school staff into bullying and cyber bullying.

'Together Against Mobbing' is a collaboration between the education ministry and the police and offers advice on measures to help avoid bullying among children and young people.

One in every six pupils across secondary schools in Luxembourg falls victim to bullying and one in every five experiences bullying online.

As part of the project pupils from Lycée Aline Mayrisch in Luxembourg City have put together videos offering advice on how to deal with the problem and an information brochure has also been printed detailing the law, advice from police and classroom activity suggestions on the topic.

Background 

Demand is growing throughout Europe to strengthen growth, innovation, competitiveness and jobs. There is a need to promote greater leadership in information and communication technology (ICT) related innovation and productivity to deliver stronger business value and benefits.

The European Union has initiated several responses to this challenge. After developing the “EU e-Skills strategy”, launching a “Grand Coalition for Digital Jobs” and organising the “e-Skills for Jobs” campaign to fill the gap between demand and supply, a new focus is put on e-leadership to foster digital talent and excellence in Europe. Recent research and studies confirmed that the shortage of e-leadership skills across Europe is significant, calling for action.

… and finally some fresh thinking from Europe! Great MT
