GREETINGS FROM PORTUGUESE TEAM


SOCIAL NETWORKING: Presentation of Global Results

Dear eTwinning partners,
We would like to share the results of our study on the topic chosen “Social Networking” and our first conclusions.
 Conclusions drawn:
1. Expectedly, almost all students, except for 3% (2 students) have an account on, at least, one social network and 67% said they accessed their account daily, with 26% accessing their accounts more than twice a day.
2. The preferred social network is for 67,2% Facebook. We have observed that young people are exploring new or alternative social networks like whatsapp.
3. The majority of the project partners use their social network account mostly to share photos (65,5%) and to share information (59,9%), after what comes the online games playing (31%). Curiously, only a minority (5,2%) answered to use it to do research for school work.
4. Although the majority of the respondents (74%) have 100 or more friends on their account, with 40% declaring to have than 200, 89% answered that they do not accept any friend’s request.
5. Regarding the protection of one’s privacy on social networks, pupils have shown that they are not capable of referring to concrete measures to protect themselves, like not publishing personal information, or not identifying people on photos etc…
6. Another aspect to take into account is the lack of information about incidents and risks of social networking unsafely, revealed by the majory who answered haven’t ever heard about  any problem.
7. We are aware that the conclusions presented are superficial and require deeper analysis. So, We intend to discuss these results more deeply in September and elaborate on these conclusions. We are interested in starting an eTwinning project next school year to address this issue of e-safety.
