Notes de l'éditeur
- The purpose of this presentation on Cyber-bullying is to inform people about the issues of cyber-bullying, and the impact it can have on education.
- According to Nancy Willard from the Center for Safe and Responsible Use of the Internet, “Cyberbullying is being cruel to others by sending or posting harmful material or engaging in other forms of social cruelty using the internet or other digital technologies.”
- It is very important to know about cyber bullying for a number of reasons. First of all it is very hard to prevent since technology is such a huge part of today’s society. Also, when students or kids are cyber-bullied it can affect the learning process. According to research done at CyberBullying.us 33% of youth have been victimized by cyber bullies. That number in itself makes cyber-bullying an important issue. More and more technology is making this issue even more common because everywhere you turn there is access to some form of technology. Lastly, educating people on the issue will help give people insight on protecting themselves against cyber-bullying.
- Cyber-bullying came about when technology such as the Internet and Cell Phones started becoming very common. Along with the benefits of computers and cell phones came other negative aspects. Internet components such as email, websites, instant messaging, blogs, and chat rooms gave an outlet for bullies to victimize people without being discovered. Cell phone are also another outlet for cyber bullying through text messages and voicemails.
- New technologies has given the original bully an infinite number of way to bully. They have the same intent, but more opportunity. The internet becomes the bullies playground on which they can victimize multiple people. Not only can this be done on computer, but internet on phones, and texting as well.
- Most bullies are truly cowards themselves, and when all of these new technologies came about it gave those people a place to hide. Those who were to fearful of being caught before, now have a way of hiding themselves.
- Cyber-bullying can definitely impact education. Students that are being cyber-bullied may become distracted, miss a lot of school, feel angry, or feel inadequate. All of these reactions hind the learning process.
- Computer time is often required during school, and this is no exception when it comes to cyber-bullying. In fact, cyber bullying can happen during school when students are supposed to be doing work. This can have a huge impact on education because students become totally overwhelmed and distracted by the bullying rather than school.
- Some steps to help stop cyber-bullying include: Don’t reply to the bully, don’t delete messages from the bully, and report cyber-bullying to the police, and schools. The bully’s goal is to get a reaction out of his victim, so by not responding the bully isn’t getting what is wanted. Also, by saving messages from the bully if they are needed for a report or for prosecution you will have the evidence. Lastly, reporting to the police and schools, may lead to finding the bully, or at least making people aware of them.
- The Megan Meier Act in Missouri made cyber-bullying illegal in Missouri. This Act was a result of a 13 year old girl, Megan Meier, killing herself as the result of cyber bullying. Other states are also taking action against cyber-bullying, as well as individual schools and school districts.
