This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

3. INTRODUCTION
Pedagogical Dictionary describes prophylactic actions as “all of the actions against unwanted
phenomena in development and behaviour of people.” It is very important especially among
young people who approach the age of adolescence – the most important developmental stage
for creating personality and proper self-esteem. Much potentially dangerous behaviour is
formed during this period. Reacting to those is critical in forming good patterns of behaviour
and preventing pathological states. Responsibility for those actions is held not only by parents
but also by schools. That is why our Comenius project “To live in agreement. Together
against violence and conflicts” tried to deal with the problem of aggression. The most
important part of this project was implementing prophylactic programmes that are going to
prevent students from aggressive behaviours. Our International Prophylactic Programme was
the response to the increasing problem of aggression in our schools (especially psychological
one). Our programme consists of lesson plans and workshops scripts but also contains other
prophylactic ideas for actions during a school year. It was designed to be a practical tool that
could be used not only in our schools but also in all European countries.

5. AGGRESSION QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS
Bulgaria
Even though in most schools there is an appointed commission working with cases
of violence among students, the results from the survey and interviews indicate the need
for a more active involvement of the pedagogical advisor. The latter has been taken int o
account and for that reason from the current year there are two pedagogical advisers –
one for the pre-secondary stage and one for the secondary stage. This has not led to a
considerable decrease of aggressive acts so far but definitely has improved the work of
the pedagogical advisors with students and we are sure the corresponding results will be
observed very soon. The work of the pedagogical advisor can also be facilitated by
engaging students who can be quite helpful in coping with problems their classmates
might be experiencing - appointing students as mediators in dealing with conflicts.
Another aspect that has been indicated by the interviews with teachers and parents
is the need for parents‟ involvement. Parents admit and teachers testify about it –
children are different at school from what they are at home. Therefore, frequent meetings
with parents and parents‟ involvement in school activities could be a step to the right
direction.
Integrating the topic of violence and aggression in the regular curriculum by
exploring its definition, causes, factors and consequences in different subjects and
perspectives can also prove to be useful for coping with the problem.
We should also mention the importance of physical activities – not only practicing
popular sports (there are various exercises specially designed to release stress – e.g.
forms of martial arts, Paneurhythmy).
Last but not least, involving students in creative extracurricular activities is a very
positive way of engaging their attention and energy and at the same time teaching them
to work together. Although it‟s a world spread practice, Bulgarian schools, for example,
still show a certain lack of many extracurricular activities. Thus creating clubs of
interests – arts, music, cinema, literature, sports could be beneficial.

6. Poland
According to the survey held in Paderewski Private Grammar School in Lublin
aggressive behaviours are quite rare. 66% of participants said that they had never
experienced conflicts with colleagues and 89% had never used force against somebody
else. Starting the project, we did not expect that 85% of students would consider violence
as the most important issue in the today‟s world. That means that our students are aware
of violence and aggression as important factors in nowadays relations. Media are
showing multiple reports about terrorists‟ attacks, religious conflicts and other violent
crimes. It makes propagating tolerance and peace among youths even more important.
After analysis of those results, we had even more motivation to work TOGETHER
AGAINST VIOLENCE.
Students of Paderewski Private Grammar School are aware of and appreciate the
actions undertaken by the school staff to prevent violence as 65% of students said that
school is dealing with aggression in a very good way. Our students are also very happy
about different aspects of their lives. The participants of the Comenius project pointed
out that they appreciate safety at school and are very glad about the relations they have
with their school colleagues and families. It means that they do not suffer from violent
acts in our school. The most common form of aggression present is psychological one –
especially insulting others and gossiping.

7. Romania
After having analyzed the results of the survey, which we carried out among our students
last October 2010, we have drawn the following conclusions:
Most of our students like going to school and find real friends in the school. Some of them
claim that they get bored in the school.
More than 50% of the students say they had a disagreement with a collegue once or twice
during this school year
The most common form of aggresion is gossiping and verbal aggression although physical
aggression also happens. About 37% od students agreed that violence is a serious problem
in pur school
29% of students admitted that drugs are a serious problem in our school and 28% of
students admitted that alcohol use is also a serious problem. 45% of students considered
smoking a problem in our school
Almost 40% of students agreed that our school copes quite well with the problem of
aggression but as many said that it‟s not going well
Most of the students admitted that they are quite happy or very happy with their lives
although they are not very keen on our country‟s politics

8. Slovakia
After having analyzed the results of the survey, which we carried out among our
students last October 2010, we have drawn the following conclusions:
Only one fifth of students like going to school, one tenth dislike. Almost a third of
students have real friends in school. Teachers should think of the fact that a quarter of
students are afraid of some lessons and one fifth is bored at school.
40% of students have already had a conflict with a teacher, more often older students.
Almost a half of students have had a misunderstanding or conflict with a classmate, more
often younger students.
More than 70% of students have experienced slender. Only one tenth of students have
already had experience with other forms of violence , what is good. Younger students
indicate more conflicts with teachers. A lot of students aged 13-15 feel criticism as an
insult.
Most often students have become witnesses of gossip (the half of older ones, but up to
90% of the youngsters). A quarter of them have seen how their friend hit somebody or he
was hit by someone else. Younger students write that they have more conflicts with
teachers – it‟s because of their age, when they have problem to respect adults. Almost 86
% of students claim that they have not hit anybody this year.
Two thirds of students say that they have not offended anyone. A quarter admitted
that they have done this once or twice. Many of younger students don‟t realize that
their words can hurt somebody.
Two thirds of students don‟t consider the violence in our school as a serious problem,
but for one third of younger students it seems to be a problem because they cannot
solve problems without violence.
According to two thirds of students the drugs in our school are not a serious problem.
Students take part in several school actions aimed at fight against drugs every schools
year – for example lectures with doctors or psychologists, discussions with people
who are helped to get over drug addiction, meetings with the police coming to school
8|P age
9. with trained dogs that are searching for drugs in the school etc. Some younger
students can consider this preventive actions as solutions of the problems which have
already occurred in our school.
Students don´t bring alcohol to school, but very often they try to bring it during a
school trip. Sale of alcohol to persons under 18 is prohibited by the law in Slovakia.
Nevertheless, many young people (and apparently younger than 18 years old) get
drunk at a disco. Older friends buy alcohol for them. Alcohol Many people don´t
consider alcohol to be a drug.
In Slovakia the laws supress smoking in schools (even in the school yard, trips, etc.).
Teachers can´t smoke in the school , too. Students-smokers, however, found a hidden
place - under the class windows of younger students. Some parents prefer to give
their children money for cigarettes to get on well with them.
Almost three quarters of pupils think that school deals with violence very well. It is a
good mark for school. This project has also contributed to it.
Two thirds of students speak highly of the work of the Student Parliament. It is praise
for parliament and a challenge to work even better.
More than 95% (altogether) of our students experience in their family more happiness
than unhappiness. Almost 95% of students are satisfied with their health – it´s natural
at their age. One fifth of students aren´t satisfied with their success at school. More
than two thirds of pupils are dissatisfied with policy in their country. Many of them
are probably more unhappy of politicians, than the policy.

After having analyzed the results of the survey, which we carried out among our
students last October 2010, we have drawn the following conclusions:
A: Following is a summary of the results of the survey.
1. Most of our students assure that they have real friends at school and that they have
not had any problems with their partners during the school year.
2. Most of them look worried about rumours about them at school but they have not
suffered from physical violence.
3. Most of our students‟ problems are related to insults and gossip behind their
backs.
4. 70% of our students have never used physical violence at school.

8. 45% think they cannot trust one another.
B: Conclusions.
1. Ours students are pleased with the relationship with their partners at school.
2. There are some problems of violence and aggression but related to rumours and
minor insults. To avoid it, our students tend to ignore them. They follow the
premise that “he, who angers you, controls you” and they want to be free.

11. 3. They trust the school rules and the teachers‟ intervention to prevent violence.
4. Our students hardly ever use violence and aggression to solve their problems.
5. There is a lack of reliability among students at school. They think they can be
betrayed at any moment.
6. They try to solve their problems by sharing them with their closest friends so that

After having analyzed the results of the survey, which we carried out among our students
last October 2010, we have drawn the following conclusions:
Most of our students like coming to school as they have to work in the summer.
School is not only a place for education but also a place for relaxing for them.
65% of students are badly affected from the media ; news ,cinema exc.
Most of the students admitted that the violence and aggression events which takes
place in Turkey is affecting their daily life negatively. When asking “ What are

Organisation, and secondly domestic violence.
70% of students believe that necessary measurements are taken and some good
actions are done to prevent violence in our school.
Although our school is formed of students from different cultures and most of
them are poor, 80% of students think that violence behaviours are not common in
the school.
90% of the students believe that they have learned how to deal with aggression
and cope with it. After the Project finished, the teachers observe that the violence
and aggression behaviours among students become rare.
After conducting a survey, the most common types of violence in our school are
verbal aggression and psychological violence.

13. LESSON PLANS
BULGARIA
SCHOOL: Hristo Botev Secondary School
SUBJECT: Literature
TEACHER: Iliana Todorova (teacher of Bulgarian Language and Literature)
CLASS: XI
TIME : 40 minutes
THEME: Crime and Punishment by F. M. Dostoevsky
TYPE OF LESSON: discussion
OBJECTIVE: to study the psychological aspects of violence and prove that every
experiment set with the wrong theses can lead from good to evil and that a division into
„superior‟ and „inferior‟ people leads to self-destruction.
MATERIALS: A copy of Crime and Punishment, hand-outs with set questions, reference
materials about current crimes local or world
PROCEDURE:
1. The teacher introduces the issues in the novel and the main concepts necessary for the
students to set their strategy in order to prove their points
2. The students are free to relate the characters‟ behaviour to reality
3. The motives for the crime should be approached as general for any crime – personal
discontent and a feeling of non-punishability
4. Main arguments:
- the most dreadful and strict judgment comes from the conscience
- a man is not born a criminal but becomes one
- everyone can change from evil to good
- to believe in the good is not naïve, because only the good can end the vicious
circle
13 | P a g e
14. EVALUATION: The students may be asked to respond to the discussion by writing an essay
on one of the draw conclusions
SCHOOL: Hristo Botev Secondary School
SUBJECT: History and Civilization, Geography and Economics, Philosophy
TEACHERS: Maya Antova (teacher of History and Civilization), Daniela Bogdanova
(teacher of Geography and Economics), Tatyana Angelova (teacher of Philosophy)
CLASSES: IX – XI (specialized classes in History and Civilization, Geography and
Economics)
TIME: 50 minutes
THEME: VIOLENCE THROUGHOUT HISTORY
TYPE OF LESSON: discussion
OBJECTIVE: Exchange of opinions on preset key questions on the topic
PROCEDURE:
A group of students (4-5) from each class does their research on the topic before the
discussion and presents their arguments.
The actual discussion is also hosted by students and can be attended by younger students
regardless of the fact they have not been introduced with the topic in class. The aim is to
involve as many students as possible and raise interest and awareness while taking the
students out of the classrooms and making them active participants in a learning process.
The preparation requires guidance from teachers of History, Geography and Philosophy.
The main points are as follows:
1. Acts of violence during the given historical ages:
- Primitive men killed for food
- Political interests provoke violence against other people
14 | P a g e
15. - During the Middle Ages violence is equalled to a feat (war is a day-to-day event
and the motives are religious, political, social); attitude towards the “other”
- The New Age doesn‟t limit violence; it is a tool for distributing the world
(Imperialism, Colonialism)
- The Modern Age doesn‟t make us more humane; the world wars are a result of the
civilized progress (they are the most brutal and wide-spread form of violence)
2. Hot spots in the modern world which provoke violence
- Geopolitical factors
- The Near East
- North America
- World terrorism
3. Philosophical aspects of the problem
- Violence as a biologically conditioned process
- Physical and psychological violence
- Dealing with conflicts

THE MOMENT’S
IMPULSE
A 40 years old woman is robbed one evening by four young people, who were
returning home from a club.
The police investigation reveals that the woman was pregnant, had 3 more children
at home, two bank credits that had to be paid from the pay check that was stolen from her
and that the physical injuries caused by the young people needed 12 days in the hospital.
From the declarations of the young men, they were 12th grade students, they were
unaware of the woman’s problems and regretted what they did.
All that they can remember from that night was that they were a little drunk and they
needed some money to continue their fun time in the club.
They did not expect for the woman to fight back and they had to hit her. But it
happened and now they regret it.
One of them was caught a week later, when he was placing in the woman’s postal box
the papers discovered in the stolen purse , convinced that it is the least he can do to fix it.

specified requirements are met.
Quality assessment is the systematic examination,
carried out to determine whether an entity is able to
meet the specified requirements.
QUALITY CONTROL
Quality inspections represent activities in which one
or more characteristics of an entity are measured,
examine, tried and the result is compared with the
specified requirements in order to determine the
conformity of those characteristics
The quality check is the confirmation of compliance
with the requirements specified by examining and

your own experience. The stories can be true,
hearsay, or well-known events
The class is divided into pairs (A and B), or a
group of three, if there is an odd number. The
stories are distributed, and the students are

asked to read one of the articles silently. Make
sure that each member of the pair or group
reads a different story.
Ask each student, in turn, to recount the story
he or she has just read to the other member(s)
of the pair or group, as if the event has just

happened. Tell them that they may ask each
other questions, and may invent details if they
wish to.

work out the exercise, in which their task is to
complete the gaps in the sentences with the
names of the punishments. Then they prepare
for discussion of possible ways how to punish
the crime and how to fight against it and
