In Brazil, four in ten teenagers face school bullying


In Brazil, four out of ten students aged 13 to 17 say they have already been victims of bullying, and 27.2 percent in this age group have suffered some form of humiliation two or more times.

The data, released this week, are based on testimonies collected in 2024 in schools across Brazil by the Brazilian government’s statistics agency IBGE as part of the National School Health Survey (PeNSE).

Compared to the previous survey, conducted in 2019, there was a 0.7 percentage point increase in the total number of students who reported having suffered bullying. The proportion of students who experienced it at least twice rose by more than 4 percentage points, Marco Andreazzi, the research manager, emphasized.

“Bullying is already characterized as something persistent, intermittent… And here we observe an upward trend, indicating that more students have begun to experience repeated situations of violence,” Andreazzi said.

The researcher stressed that “the number of those who suffer bullying remains practically the same; however, the persistence and intensity of the episodes have increased.”

Appearance, race, gender

Bullied students told researchers that their facial features or hair were the main targets of bullying, accounting for 30.2 percent of cases.

Next is body appearance, accounting for 24.7 percent, followed by bullying related to color or race, reported by 10.6 percent.

“There is also a high percentage - 26.3 percent - of students who say the bullying had no reason. That is, many of those who suffer do not know why, and this is natural, since bullying occurs collectively and the victim does not necessarily perceive a reason for it. On the contrary, they feel completely wronged,” the research manager noted.

The research found that girls are the most affected - 43.3 percent have experienced bullying, compared to 37.3 percent of boys.

Furthermore, 30.1 percent of female adolescent students reported feeling humiliated by teasing from classmates two or more times. This proportion is nearly 6 percentage points higher than among male students.

Profile of the aggressors

Data on those who commit bullying show an inverse pattern: 13.7 percent of students reported having engaged in some form of violence - 16.5 percent of boys and 10.9 percent of girls.

IBGE also asked about the reasons for the aggression, and once again, facial features, hair, body type, and skin color or race were the most frequently cited.

However, some significant differences emerged in relation to victims’ reports. For example, 12.1 percent of perpetrators said they engaged in bullying because of their classmates’ gender or sexual orientation, while only 6.4 percent of victims identified this as a motive for the violence.

A similar pattern emerged regarding disability: while 7.6 percent of perpetrators acknowledged engaging in bullying for this reason, only 2.6 percent of victims associated the attacks with this characteristic.

For researchers, this may indicate that many victims prefer to remain silent about the circumstances for fear of being stigmatized.

Underground library in Warsaw metro invites commuters to trade scrolling for stories

In Warsaw’s Targówek district, a metro ride has become more than a daily routine. Now it offers a chance to escape into a story. Thanks to Metroteka, a newly opened subterranean library inside the Kondratowicza M2 metro station, commuters can now trade mindless scrolling for meaningful reading.

The 150-square-meter space is stocked with more than 16,000 books, all available through a fast self-checkout system. Visitors can also borrow laptops, sip complimentary coffee, and unwind in a cozy communal area, all while waiting for their train.

“Our dream is for Metroteka to become an educational and cultural center, and not just a place where you can borrow your books from,” says Grażyna StrzelczakBatkowska, deputy director of the Targówek library.

A modern space that breathes life into books

Metroteka’s design is as inviting as its mission. A lush hydroponic garden wall filled with herbs and flowers gives the underground space a breath of fresh air, literally. Basil, oregano, and other plants grow without soil or sunlight, infusing the library with an unexpected sense of vitality. The bookshelves, shaped like soft, undulating waves, add to the organic feel.

“I always joke that books are not made of glass,” Strzelczak-Batkowska says. “You can just pop in, grab a few, throw them on a self-checkout machine, and that’s it—you’re out on a new adventure.”

Aiming to reverse a national trend

Poland’s reading habits have been in steady decline for years. A 2024 survey by the National Library of Poland found that only 41 percent of respondents had read at least one book in the past year. According to Tomasz Makowski, director of the National Library, the legacy of war has shaped these numbers. During World War II, Poland lost 70 percent of its libraries.

“We had several generations that did not see their parents or grandparents in front of a wall of books,” Makowski says. “Reading is [also] not something associated with adulthood, but with schools, teachers, librarians, and usually mothers reading to children.”

By placing literature in the path of everyday commuters, Metroteka hopes to shift that cultural perception.

An open invitation to all

For Makowski, the location is just as important as the books. “Opening a library in a metro station is like a dream for us,” he says. “Libraries should be beautiful and open; inviting, not intimidating. It’s not a shrine, but a place where you can spend time freely, take part in discussions, public consultations, or meet people.”

In the coming months, Metroteka plans to host author readings, workshops, and classes to further engage the community. Books can be returned either directly to the library or via parcel lockers outside the station, available around the clock.

As commuters pass through Kondratowicza station with coffee in hand and a novel tucked under one arm, Metroteka quietly transforms daily routines into cultural moments. By meeting people where they are, literally underground, the library isn’t just promoting reading. It’s redefining what public space can offer.

For decades, it seemed that the purpose of our education system was to encourage competition. Schools would award prizes to the most talented student and proudly display their names on bulletin boards. Nowadays, in many institutions, the key word has become "inclusion": no one should be left behind. Resources are channeled into helping the east capable; everyone's work (good or bad) is on the walls; and prize tables are heavily loaded with awards to make sure everyone is awarded a prize for something. Which approach is right?

Attempts to make education more inclusive are frequently criticized. Many point out that once students leave the protective environment of the classroom, they will face the challenges of the working world: what use will false reassurance be then? The purpose of school must be to reveal to people their limitations, so that they can find a vocation that suits them.

In the past, allowing the talented to rise to the top through competition would certainly have been important. In most factories, it was useful to separate the potential managers from the unskilled workforce, and companies relied on finding talented individuals to win business before their competitors did. An ethos of competition also helped countries to compete effectively with other nations as they scrambled for territory, raced to accumulate armaments or even traveled into space ahead of rivals.

But in the 21st century, are we really preparing young people for a world of competition? The academic James F. Moore argues that the days when businesses competed with each other are ending. Moore believes we should talk of "business ecosystems" nowadays. International corporations operate in global networks of suppliers and partners. Sometimes; even rival corporations work together. For example: companies often have to collaborate to define common industry standards.

What's more, hierarchies are disappearing within organizations. Modern companies have a wider range of business functions (public relations, IT, research and development), and so skills. Knowledge and decision-making are spread throughout the organization. In a modern marketing department alone, there are teams for collecting and analyzing a wealth of customer data, designing brands, advertising, etc. Each individual contributes vital skills and must receive equal training. Low-skilled work, by comparison, is increasingly being performed by automated labor; that is, robots.

But it isn't just in businesses that cooperation is becoming the norm. In the past, individuals, colleges, governments, and companies didn't have to collaborate. Now', 'collective impact" is becoming the gold standard. For example, an anti-obesity project called "Shape Up Somerville" managed to significantly bring down the average BMI (body mass index) in the town in just three years, by involving schools, colleges, local businesses, charities, government, and local citizens in a program of collective action. Led by academics, and funded by four agencies. The work involved designing school lunch menus, improving walkways, introducing gym membership packages, and running campaigns amongst the public.

Competition can still be useful. It's stimulating and can help us learn about ourselves. But it should not become a dominant feature of education systems. Those who do not receive investment will find it increasingly hard to fit into the modern world. It really is learning to take part that counts.

Information Security (InfoSec) defined

Information security, often abbreviated InfoSec, is a set of security procedures and tools that broadly protect sensitive enterprise information from misuse, unauthorized access, disruption, or destruction. InfoSec encompasses physical and environmental security, access control, and cybersecurity. It often includes technologies like cloud access security brokers (CASB), deception tools, endpoint detection and response (EDR), and security testing for DevOps (DevSecOps), among others.

Key elements of information security


InfoSec comprises a range of security tools, solutions, and processes that keep enterprise information secure across devices and locations, helping to protect against cyberattacks or other disruptive events.

•  Application security - Policies, procedures, tools, and best practices enacted to protect applications and their data.w
•  Cloud security - Policies, procedures, tools, and best practices enacted to protect all aspects of the cloud, including systems, data, applications, and infrastructure.
•  Cryptography - An algorithm-based method of securing communication meant to ensure only intended recipients of a specific message can view and decipher it.
•  Disaster recovery - A method to reestablish functional technological systems in the wake of an event like a natural disaster, cyberattack, or another disruptive event.
•  Incident response - An organization’s plan for responding to, remediating, and managing the aftermath of a cyberattack, data breach, or another disruptive event.
•  Infrastructure security - Security that encompasses an organization’s entire technological infrastructure, including both hardware and software systems.
•  Vulnerability management - The process an organization takes to identify, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities in its endpoints, software, and systems.


Three pillars of information security: the CIA triad

Confidentiality, integrity, and availability make up the cornerstones of strong information protection, creating the basis for an enterprise’s security infrastructure. The CIA triad offers these three concepts as guiding principles for implementing an InfoSec plan.


Confidentiality

Privacy is a major component of InfoSec, and organizations should enact measures that allow only authorized users access to information. Data encryption, multi-factor authentication, and data loss prevention are some of the tools enterprises can employ to help ensure data confidentiality.

Integrity

Enterprises must maintain data’s integrity across its entire lifecycle. Enterprises with strong InfoSec will recognize the importance of accurate, reliable data, and permit no unauthorized user to access, alter, or otherwise interfere with it. Tools like file permissions, identity management, and user access controls help ensure data integrity.

Availability

InfoSec involves consistently maintaining physical hardware and regularly completing system upgrades to guarantee that authorized users have dependable, consistent access to data as they need it.

The world’s oldest map of the night sky was amazingly accurate

    Newly discovered fragments of 2,200-year-old star coordinates—once thought lost—reveal the incredible skill of the ancient astronomer Hipparchus.
    Some 2,200 years ago, the Greek astronomer Hipparchus helped ___________ a new way of understanding the motions of the stars that persists to this day. By imagining Earth at the center of a celestial sphere, he used a coordinate system similar to latitude and longitude, which had recently been devised, to measure the precise positions of the stars.
    “He was arguably the greatest ancient astronomer. At least the greatest known to us by name,” says Victor Gysembergh, a science historian at the French National Center for Scientific Research.
    Many ancient Greek scientists believed that Earth was literally at the center of the universe, and the stars and other celestial bodies rotated around it, although a model with Earth orbiting the sun was ___________ in the 3rd century B.C. Although this geocentric model is incorrect, the concept, which Hipparchus used to create the first known star catalog, is still used by scientists to map objects in the sky.
    Hipparchus’s star catalog is the oldest known attempt to document the positions of as many objects in the night sky as possible, and it was the first time that two coordinates were used to pinpoint each object’s location. But that original catalog is lost to time, and we know of it only thanks to the writings of later scientists such as Ptolemy, who created his own star catalog around 150 A.D. and attributed an earlier one to Hipparchus. Until now, the oldest evidence for stellar coordinates from Hipparchus was an 8th-century A.D. Latin translation of a poem about the constellations that includes the coordinates as a kind of annotation.
    Gysembergh and his ___________ recently revealed even older evidence of star coordinates from Hipparchus in a 5th- or 6th-century A.D. Greek version of the same poem, Phenomena, originally written by the Greek poet Aratus in the 3rd century B.C. The poem, along with the accompanying star coordinates, had been erased from a reused medieval parchment and was recovered only through multispectral imaging, which uses different wavelengths of light to highlight the removed text.
    The coordinates for the four stars to the farthest north, south, east, and west of the constellation Corona Borealis are included, though one of them could not be recovered from the manuscript. They were found to be accurate to within one degree of modern values—a remarkable achievement for someone working about 1,700 years before the invention of the telescope.

National Assessment Reform: Core Considerations for Brazil


    Education has been an integral part of Brazil’s success story. With expanded access to basic education and improvements in literacy rates, young Brazilians are entering today’s workforce with higher levels of education than previous generations. This educational progress has contributed to and benefited from the economic growth that helped improve living standards and, during the first decade of the millennium, lifted more than 29 million people out of poverty. Trend data from the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) reveal that Brazil’s increasing school participation rates have been realised alongside progress in education quality. This is a remarkable achievement considering that many of the new students progressing through the education system come from disadvantaged backgrounds and often lack the socio-economic support that helps enable learning. Nevertheless, PISA also reveals that the overall performance of Brazil’s education system is well below the OECD average and other emerging economies, such as parts of China and the Russian Federation. One reason for this is Brazil’s high share of students who do not achieve baseline proficiency, or Level 2 in PISA. Results from PISA 2018 show that 50% of Brazilian students failed to reach Level 2 in reading, meaning they can only complete basic tasks. Brazil’s share of low-performers was even higher in Mathematics and Science (68% and 55%, respectively). At the other end of the spectrum, few students in Brazil were able to answer more difficult PISA questions, like inferring neutrality or bias in a text, which require skills that are increasingly important in today’s world. The new approach to education, set out in the BNCC, aims not only to ensure that all students achieve basic cognitive skills but also develop the higher-order skills needed to solve complex problems of everyday life.
