It is established in Preschool Education that the preschool teacher is the only professional who can legally perform pedagogical duties in the kindergarten, with a work schedule of 25 hours per week. Reality shows that over the last years, professionals other than preschool teachers have been performing tasks in this educational context, within the social or family support component. The aim of this study is to assess who these professionals are and in what time and space of the kindergarten they develop their activities: whether it is just within the social component or within the instructional component as well. To do so, we sought to determine preschool teachers’ opinion regarding the performance of those professionals and identify the areas in which they intervene. We used qualitative and quantitative field research, through a structured questionnaire survey containing closed and open questions, provided in paper format during the months of January and February 2017. The sample is composed of the preschool teachers working in both the private and public sectors in the city of Braganca – Northern Portugal. The results are expected to cast light on the following: the perceptions of a group of preschool teachers regarding the presence of other professionals performing activities within their teaching time; the activities developed; the several curricular areas laid down by the Curricular Guidelines for Preschool Education (CGPE) which are covered by the preschool teachers; and the time assigned to such areas.

However, this would not be enough without the students` full engagement in their professional training by involving themselves in training along with thorough work. The 21st century calls for high quality teacher training given the competitiveness on the labour market and the progress of scientific conquests in all areas. It is necessary to consider and implement a curriculum that develops excellent competences in our students. It should bring a significant contribution to efficient training of future teachers in theoreticalscientific, methodological and practical terms so that teachers would be able to use their competences in a creative manner in the classroom.

Another recent finding gives arguments for the actual detached voyeurs’ generation, underlying that by observing on screen, terrible things happening to other people, we develop our own experience towards the victim, but at an emotional distance. The more we observe terrifying events happening to other people, the more they reinforce our sense of denial and detachment, thus resulting a lack of victim empathy. Our research team has developed the project Keeping youth safe from Cyberbullying, ID 2016-3-TR01- KA205-036619 aiming to deeper understand the dynamics of different cyberbullying aspects in online environments among youth, by creating an online questionnaire composed by single item research questions related to core concepts and perceptions about cyberbullying motives and effects. Our focus is in analyzing the effects of online freedom of speech agreement on victim empathy in cyberbullying incidents, seen as two core concepts in bystanders’ mindset, in 140 high school students. Results show that when modelling effects of online freedom of speech agreement on victim empathy, the curvilinear model (13%) is more consistent that the linear model (9%), even if both models show statistical significance.
