Resilience, understood as mental toughness and the ability to regain balance after difficult experiences, is today a key competence for both youth and adults in the school environment. The teacher, as a guide and role model, plays a particularly important role in shaping students' attitudes toward challenges and crises. Their ability to regulate emotions, maintain balance, and build relationships based on empathy and trust becomes the foundation for developing students' psychological resilience. In the context of increasing pressures on schools—such as mental health crises and rapid social changes—it is the teacher's attitude and care for their own well-being that influence the creation of an atmosphere conducive to student development. A holistic approach, mindfulness, and respect for boundaries not only help prevent burnout, but also allow for the creation of a crisis-resilient school—a place where both teachers and students can feel safe and thrive.

Deep Fake, Fake News, disinformation – everyone knows these words by now. But terms like Fake Events, Boomertraps, AI Slop, or LLM Grooming are still unfamiliar to most. For now... “The inability to tell what’s true and what’s not” is the biggest fear tied to the development of modern technologies—a fear shared by people around the world. On the other hand, it turns out we love conspiracy theories and the meme-ified version of reality. That we’re more eager and determined to share false information with one another. That we almost blindly accept and adopt technologies that allow us to distort and manipulate the image of reality. Why is that? And why will it keep happening? Hmm, that is the question.

[Webinar conducted in polish] Does your child or student reach for their phone even during studying or conversations? Or maybe you yourself notice difficulties concentrating and constantly switching between screens? We live in a world of digital distractions that affect concentration, sleep, relationships, and health—for both children and adults. This webinar will help you understand how excessive screen time impacts the developing brain and well-being of young people. You will learn how to counteract the effects of multiscreening and support healthy digital habits. In this webinar, you will find out, among other things: How does excessive screen time affect brain development and concentration in children and adolescents? Why do digital distractions lower academic performance and the ability to focus? How do screens disrupt sleep, increase stress levels, and hinder relationships? Why is media multitasking so harmful—especially for young people?

[Webinar conducted in polish] The aim of the webinar is to provide knowledge on how to identify the needs of children from vulnerable groups in the context of recognition and diagnosis, as well as to jointly explore safe ways and possibilities to meet those needs in the context of functioning within a dual reality (simultaneously real and virtual).

[Webinar conducted in polish] Children in early primary school are increasingly using the internet independently, which brings many risks, including hate speech, harmful content, addiction, and grooming. During the webinar, we will discuss the most significant of these threats and demonstrate how to effectively counteract them through educational activities tailored to younger internet users. We will present the Sieciaki project – an educational initiative implemented for over 20 years by the Empowering Children Foundation, which supports children in using the internet safely. We will showcase the project's new website, available educational materials, and the e-learning course. The webinar will be an opportunity to learn about practical tools and methods for working with children that will help them cope with digital threats.

[Webinar conducted in polish] We will discuss lesser-known aspects of the internet, focusing on its physical side and ecological impact – the effect that the production and functioning of devices used for internet connectivity have on our environment. What is the true cost of a new smartphone and instant access to information? How much energy do servers consume? We aim to broaden the understanding of digital well-being by talking about the impact of technology use not only on our health but also on the state of our environment.

[Webinar conducted in polish] In an era of widespread internet use, users are increasingly exposed to cyber threats. The growing activity of cybercriminals, including the use of artificial intelligence, makes data protection and conscious online behavior more important than ever. The meeting aims to raise awareness of online threats and develop practical skills in cybersecurity and cyber hygiene. The webinar will cover, among others: • methods used by cybercriminals (phishing, identity theft, AI-based scams), • how to identify suspicious content and avoid threats, • cyber hygiene principles – e.g., strong passwords, updates, safe device usage. The webinar is intended for teachers of all educational levels – regardless of their level of technological proficiency.

[Webinar conducted in polish] The lecture focuses on what research tells us about how generative artificial intelligence can positively and negatively impact the development and socialization of young people. We will mainly focus on studies conducted among Polish teachers as part of a NASK project, as well as the qualitative part of the EU Kids Online project (interviews with teenagers).

[Webinar conducted in polish] The webinar is dedicated to the practical use of modern tools based on artificial intelligence in education. Participants will learn what generative AI is, how popular applications work, and what benefits they can bring to everyday teaching practice. We will discuss how to create and personalize educational materials, support formative assessment, formulate feedback, and construct success criteria with the help of AI. We will also address important ethical issues and how teachers can support students in the responsible use of technology. There will be numerous practical tips and examples of implementations that they can use in their work immediately.

[Webinar conducted in polish] Social media is exerting an increasing influence on how children and teenagers perceive their appearance. Idealized images, beauty filters, and constant comparisons with peers and influencers create pressure—even for the youngest—to “look better.” This can lead to body dissatisfaction, lower self-esteem, and even risky behaviors that impact mental and physical health. This webinar is dedicated to raising awareness about the influence of social media on self-image and to developing practical ways to support students in building healthy self-esteem. Topics to be covered include: • how social media works (filters, likes, algorithms), • differences in appearance-related pressure between girls and boys, • psychological effects of idealized beauty standards, • the role of adults in counteracting these phenomena.

[Webinar conducted in polish] Do your students or children struggle to put down their phones—even during class? 🔄 Do you notice that social media, games, and smartphones increasingly affect their mood, sleep, and relationships with others? 🧠 In an age of ever-running algorithms, rapidly changing stimuli, and constant online access, it’s becoming harder to protect young people from digital overload. 🎯 This webinar will help you understand how new technologies impact the mental health of children and teenagers, and what we can do to prevent digital addictions—especially within the school environment.

[Webinar conducted in polish] This webinar on digital identity will focus on analyzing the mechanisms that shape how teenagers present themselves online.

Participants will learn how to support young people in building healthy self-esteem and a responsible approach to their online presence.

[Webinar conducted in polish] Pornography — particularly online pornography — is one of the most dangerous and unique “killers” of healthy psychosexual development in young people. At present, we generally lack effective solutions that could both minimize exposure to pornography and offer viable alternatives. That alternative should be professional sex education—serving not only as a source of accurate information, but also as a way to address emerging needs, emotions, and experiences related to sexuality. This is especially important because, for most adolescents, pornography becomes the primary "compendium of knowledge" on the subject. However, it is a commercial product and should be viewed solely as such—in both perception and behavior—so that young people understand that intimate, erotic, and sexual life has nothing to do with pornography. My presentation will focus on these interrelated issues.

[Webinar conducted in polish] In the age of widespread digitalization, children and teenagers are spending more and more time online, which brings both opportunities and serious risks – from addiction and cyberbullying to exposure to inappropriate content. In the face of these challenges, the quality of relationships between children and adults plays a key role. Research and practice show that a strong, trust-based bond with parents and teachers can effectively protect young people from the negative impact of the internet. During the webinar, we will explore how to build and strengthen these bonds in everyday interactions with children. Participants will learn: what mechanisms make the adult–child relationship a "protective shield," how to talk with children about their online activity, and how to support them in developing digital skills. The webinar is intended for parents and teachers who want to better understand the role of relationships in preventing digital threats and learn practical strategies for building trust and closeness in the screen era.

[Webinar conducted in polish] During the webinar, we will examine the phenomenon of "Patotreści 2.0," meaning violent, manipulative, or emotionally harmful content appearing on platforms popular among youth. We will discuss how the form and distribution of such materials have changed, the role algorithms play in promoting toxic content, and what motivates young people to watch it. We will also consider the potential psychological and social consequences of exposure to such content and the currently available response options.
