The European school must use ICT technology to teach children and future European citizens how to access and respond to different contents on the Internet and computer in a responsible and safe way. Nowadays, they are both symbiotically connected in schools as communication and learning mediums and essential teaching tools. Therefore, teaching about the safe use and knowledge of the dangers on the Internet, especially cyberbullying, are crucial in our role as teachers in every European school.The aim of our partnership among Slovenia, Spain and Turkey was to raise awareness and teach all students how to use computers in a safe and responsible way with different activities while raising cultural awareness, intercultural and interpersonal competences, developing responsible and peaceful online behaviour according to common global codes, using ICT as a learning tool and improving communication and language skills which were possible in this common European ground. This common ground dictated the use of different methods to achieve our goals: debating, creating posters, interviewing, creating presentations, learning and discussing about how to cope with problems on the Internet, graphic representations of the project and activities for online visualization of the content, organizing different workshops (for example, students helped to teach the elderly or younger students to use computers and the Internet), learning about partner countries and culture (cultural programmes), special days of activities (sports activities day or celebrating Safer Internet day or presenting their national stories instead of reading on the Internet) and peer learning. These were all partnership activities which helped to raise cultural awareness and standards of behaviour which apply consequently to the Internet and computers.
