The authors also propose to discuss the results of a study aimed at development of digital skills of the future teachers, since their level of proficiency affects the quality of tools helping to prevent cyberbullying. The results of the study showed that students, both full-time and part-time, note high importance of media literacy and technical literacy of their work or study.

As one of the tools for preventing cyberbullying the authors suggest using web quests. During the training sessions, future teachers learn not only to develop web quests, but also to model scenarios for getting out of situations related to bullying, thereby developing their professional competencies in the digital environment. |
