More on Anti-Cyberbullying

Posted on April 5th, 2007 in stopcyberbullying by mshrm18

We had a discussion about cyberbullying and how to stop it.  We came up with ideas of how we could help stop it: 

  1. Stand up and say stop it – don’t keep quiet about it
  2. Report it  - tell someone – a parent, a teacher, an adult you trust
  3. Keep talking about it and spread the message
  4. Just don’t do it 

We came up with half a dozen ways to that people use to bully people over the internet like: videos, pictures/images, voice recorder/audio or written word.   

After our two week holiday, we’re going to make a powerpoint presentation on Stop Cyberbullying.

Anti-Cyberbullying Day

Posted on April 1st, 2007 in stopcyberbullying by mshrm18

On Friday we had a big discussion on Cyberbullying because March 30th 2007 was officially Stop Cyberbullying Day.
We talked about cyberbullying and did some brainstorming about it. Here’s some of our discussion notes.
Our Scribe of The Week will post some more of the discussions later.

Why should we help stop Cyberbullying?

It’s doesn’t feel good to be on the receiving end of it.
It can have a depressing effect on some people.
It can make people feel afraid.
We’ll miss out on the good things on the Internet.
It’s just plain wrong!
