This paper focuses on the phenomenon of bullying in the electronic environment - cyberbullying. It is divided in two parts - a theoretical part in which we define basic concepts such as bullying and cyberbullying, as they are important in our context. The contribution includes several definitions of cyberbullying from authors who first thought of this topic. Cyberbullying also includes various forms, which, together with their means, are elaborated at work. It is important to explain basic bullying that we compare with cyberbullying. Our goal is to design options and solutions for its prevention and elimination. The research part is in the form of a quantitative questionnaire which analyzes the issue of cyberbullying through the eyes of secondary school pupils, especially their real experience and knowledge of the assumed subject to achieve the idea of the current state. We discovered whether students were bullying someone over the internet, cyberbullying, and how they matched cyberbullying. The aim of our research questions was also to find out if students are familiar with some of the web sites that deal with cyberbullying prevention and whether their school provides enough information to address this issue.

The interview was conducted during the Megatrends and Media 2018 – Reality and Media Bubbles conference organised by the Faculty of Mass Media Communication at the University of SS. Cyril and Methodius in Trnava in April 2018 as the professor was one of the main plenary speakers at the conference. The interview focuses on the language of new media, and the Internet in particular, and the use of technologies from the professor’s point of view. It deals with ongoing simplification and liberalisation trends in society and language as well as with the development within linguistics characterised by the shift from prescriptivism to descriptivism and their possible reflection in the new media and in education. It introduces the tendencies of intertextuality and informalisation that are typical for the language of the media today.

In the digitalization period projects to support the development of critical thinking are needed to maintain political and societal balance. Rapid changes in technology and information leave a space wherein can form many harmful groups or individuals to influence their respondents with false messages and hoaxes. It is necessary to develop the critical thinking of people from a young age, so the project Trust Me has been created. The aim of the project is to support the education of pupils of primary and secondary schools in the field of media literacy and critical thinking. Through two specialized curriculums students can understand the ways of manipulation with information and learn how to distinguish trustworthy contents on the Internet.

One of the roles of media research is to explain social phenomena. The Internet became a place where society expresses itself and where society could be influenced or even manipulated. Therefore, online communication analysis becomes a tool that is expected to guarantee the transparency of the social communication process. Unfortunately, the size of the Internet makes analysis difficult, and traditional methods of analysing communication are not always enough or force the researcher to focus on a fragmentary data. The author asks a question which research methods are suitable for Internet research and allow to improve transparency. It focuses on the method group referred to in the article as Mass Automated Internet Analysis. In the final part, the author shows examples of several – existing or being developed – research methods and techniques (including data collection and data analysis field), what research methods can improve the quality of digital communications research.

Recently the European Union has accepted quite a large number of refugees. The aim of the paper is to analyze if globalization might have contributed to such a dramatic increase in flow of migrants (or, is it the only reason?). The strongest barrier of migration – incomplete information – has been overcome by free access to the Internet and mobile communications. This article looks at migration in 195 countries over the period from 2000 till 2015. It was found that indicators of high living standards in host countries or extreme life conditions in source countries do not affect the flow of migrants. The results support the hypothesis that better access to information is positively linked to the growth of migrants over the world.

Niedawno Unia Europejska przyjęła dość dużą liczbę uchodźców. Celem artykułu jest zbadanie, czy globalizacja mogła przyczynić się do tak dramatycznego wzrostu przepływu migrantów (albo czy to jedyny powód?). Najmocniejsza bariera migracji – niekompletne informacje – została przezwyciężona przez swobodny dostęp do Internetu i komunikacji mobilnej. W niniejszym artykule omówiono migrację w 195 krajach w okresie od 2000 do 2015 r. Stwierdzono, że wskaźniki wysokiego poziomu życia w krajach przyjmujących lub ekstremalne warunki życia w krajach pochodzenia nie wpływają na przepływ migrantów. Wyniki potwierdzają hipotezę, że lepszy dostęp do informacji ma pozytywną korelacją ze wzrostem migracji na całym świecie.

Internet jako nowe medium ma duży wpływ na zachowania i postawy młodzieży. To oni są zazwyczaj użytkownikami tego medium. Generacja Awatarów to młodzież, która żyje online. Są obecni w sieci na portalach społecznościowych, czatują, wrzucają filmy na YouTube, zdjęcia na Facebooka, to „celebryci” wirtualnego świata. Dla nich Internet to wirtualny przyjaciel, ale bardziej realny niż cokolwiek innego. Inną grupę stanowi młodzież, która korzystając z sieci, chce pozostać w niej anonimowa i to z różnych powodów. Jest jeszcze grupa wykluczonych, którzy nie maja wciąż dostępu do Internetu i z tego powodu są marginalizowani przez rówieśników. Internet oprócz ogromnych możliwości niesie ze sobą szereg niebezpieczeństw. Do najważniejszych z nich możemy zaliczyć: uzależnienia płynące z sieci, czyli siecioholizm, seks wirtualny, trans dysocjacyjny przed monitorem czy agresywne gry sieciowe. Jak to wszystko wpływa na młodzież i jakie niesie w ich życiu skutki – na te, i inne pytania staramy się znaleźć odpowiedź w oparciu o dostępne dane i prowadzone badania.

The Internet as the dominant contemporary communication medium has gained a considerable impact on the social behavior and mental attitudes of juveniles, which are its main users and beneficiaries. We can properly discern three different types of juvenile internetusers: The first group, generally referred to as “Avatars”, lead a separate life “online”. Representatives of this group are omnipresent on community websites, chat, upload movies on YouTube, photos on the Facebook, indulge in being virtual celebrities. For them, the Internet has corporealized as a virtual friendto such a degree that it assumes more reality than any actual human being. The second group comprehends adolescents who make extensive use of internetservices but prefer to keep their anonymity online for various reasons. The third category comprises adolescents without access to the Internet, which marginalizes them among their peers. Aside from the formidable potential the Internet holds in store for its expert user, its implicit dangerous potential shouldn’t be neglected. Among the most imminent risks for its users number various kinds of psychic addictions that linger in the web, as there are: Internet addiction disorder, cyber sex, aggressive computer games, dissociative display trance and many more. In this paper we try to analyze the impact that emanates from the web on the lifestyle of adolescents and young adults, as well as the longterm consequences that may result therefrom, resorting to available databases and research report s.
