Resumen
As a consequence of some previous theoretical work, this paper analyses children's experience of rights. The project "Growing with Rights", was carried out via Internet in sixteen Spanish primary schools. More than seven hundred pupils (10 to 12 years old) and thirty teachers took part in it. The project was grounded on the idea that children's rights aim to promote the image of boys and girls as active agents. So, when teaching rights we must depart from an open dialogue on the personal experience they have about their own rights. In the paper, we first consider the theoretical basis of the project, concerning both the pedagogic possibilities of the new achievements in information technology, and the evolution and meaning of the rights of the child. Then, we expose some methodological aspects and discuss the main results arising from the research.
