Online Bullying and Harassment
Online Bullying and Harassment
also known as cyber bullying
A brief list of statistics that are common among cyber bullying are listed on:
Another story that has made news lately is of a high school football coach that suspended his whole team because they were cyber bullying a kid in school.
Actions can only be taken to stop people from committing these crimes if people speak out and make it known that some people are being cyber bullied.

This site explains the different statistics about cyber bullying and who and what groups are the main bullies and victims. Each statistic is able to show what is going on with our world today and how cyber bullying is affecting it. This information shows just how horrible cyber bullying really is. The author of this information is valid and the information is somewhat new. Personally, I feel that this information is very important and very shocking. It is sad that this horrible of a thing has affected young kids and some are even too scared to mention that they are being bullied until sometimes it is too late.
Reflection
This project was assigned in class and a topic was to be chosen, researched, and presented. I chose online bullying and harrassment and although I didn't learn much about this topic because I already know a lot about it, I was happy that a topic was available that I did know something about. It is alwasy nice to be able to work on a topic that you enjoy instead of something that is boring. This project relates to the NETS 3A which is demonstrating our fluency in technology and use what we already know and what we are learning to apply it to our blog. Also for the NETS standards, 2B applies as well because it enables a technology-rich envrioment to work in. For the INTASC standards, this project applies to standard 5 which is Application of Content. 5(a) enables the teacher to help students use technology to understand current and real world ideas. Online bullying is a real world thing and something that takes technology in order to use credible sources while researching and presenting this information.
