Be aware: Some posts may be delayed. We apologize for that! School education in Cyprus is recognized by the world community of educators as the most progressive and fundamental. A rich and interesting educational program has been created for students, the main goal of which is to make learning a positive process in the life of every
child. Children study for twelve years, which is enough time to gradually acquire useful skills and knowledge. The educational system provides quality education for children aged 5 to 17-18 years. If a family is just planning to move to Cyprus, it is worth knowing that foreign children have the same rights to educational services as local children. The professional orientation of students is exactly the direction in which Cypriots have achieved significant
success. Educational institutions are based on the British model of education. This means that the greatest attention is paid to the development of each child's individual personality. State or elite school - educational institutions of all forms of teaching are strictly controlled by the Ministry of Education of Cyprus. |
Education has changed. Teachers no longer lecture from a dais with student learning contained within the schoolhouse walls. Thanks to the pervasiveness of easy-to-use and free web-based tools, most teachers have one or more computers in the classroom with internet access. Because of this, educators have come to expect
students to participate actively in the learning process and transfer their knowledge from the classroom to life. For example, when preparing a project, a fifth grader will do the research using the internet, collaborate with classmates on Google, write the report with a web-based tool, share it using digital tools, and then use those learned skills in other classes. Students have become digital citizens. The question is: How do they thrive in the digital
world? Here are popular online resources to teach about AI and Plagiarism detection: Click for

- you need to save battery power. As writers, that could be when you're reading a downloaded Kindle book or working on your
WIP offline (it'll sync when you turn the internet back on)
- as a 'do not disturb' feature: if you are focused on writing or researching and want to avoid intrusions for a set period of time. The intrusions will return as soon as you turn it off.
- to avoid roaming charges if you travel internationally for book conferences or interviews
- to avoid being tracked: In airplane mode, location services are off and no one knows where you are.
- to sleep without
interruptions. Rest assured, when you wake up and remove airplane mode, everything you missed will tumble onto your phone
