Book Description
This book looks in depth at the emerging issue of cyber-bullying. In this increasingly digital world cyber-bullying has emerged as an electronic form of bullying that is difficult to monitor or supervise because it often occurs outside the physical school setting and outside school hours on home computers and personal phones. These web-based and mobile technologies are providing young people with what has been described as: ‘an arsenal of weapons for social cruelty’. These emerging issues have created an urgent need for a practical book grounded in comprehensive scholarship that addresses the policy-vacuum and provides practical educational responses to cyber-bullying. Written by one of the few experts on the topic Cyber-Bullying develops guidelines for teachers, head teachers and administrators regarding the extent of their obligations to prevent and reduce cyber-bullying. The book also highlights ways in which schools can network with parents, police, technology providers and community organizations to provide support systems for victims (and perpetrators) of cyber-bullying.

School Crime and Safety
Author: Peter W. Amherst
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781594547362
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
Schools are entrusted with ensuring the safety of students and staff. One measure of the safety of America's public schools is the presence of violence on school campuses. Violent incidents include rape, sexual battery other than rape, physical attacks or fights with and without a weapon, threats of physical attack with and without a weapon, and robberies with and without a weapon. In order to provide a measure of the most severe incidents, those crimes that would be considered aggravated assaults were included as serious violent incidents. This book examines school bullying, prevention of youth hate crimes and other safety plans and policies within schools.

Bullying and Cyberbullying
Author: Elizabeth Kandel Englander
Publisher: Harvard Education Press
ISBN: 1612506011
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
"Bullying" is a term that’s being, well, bullied. It’s been rendered essentially powerless by being constantly kicked around,” writes nationally recognized bullying expert Elizabeth Kandel Englander. In this practical and insightful book, Englander dispels pervasive myths and misconceptions about peer cruelty, bullying, and cyberbullying. Drawing on her own and others’ research, she shows how educators can flag problematic behaviors and frame effective responses. Englander puts a special focus on “gateway” behaviors—those subtle actions that, unchecked, can quickly escalate into more serious misbehavior—and explores how students perceive their own and their peers’ behavior. Written in an accessible, conversational tone and informed by careful research, this timely book is an essential guide for educators. Key takeaways include the impact of technology on social behavior, a framework for responding effectively to bullies—including innovative ideas about the role of social peers—and suggestions for working with parents.

Because It’S Wrong
Author: Lydia Greico M.A.
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1546217770
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
Because Its Wrong is relevant today because each year, bullying is on the rise. Few people want to talk about the subject as if it is taboo. Lydia Greico, the author, was bullied herself in elementary school, as well as in the neighborhood in which she grew up. She feels that bullying is wrong, especially for the victim. Childhood bullies get away with their behavior because parents either dont see it or are in denial. Bullying is on the rise all over the world. It has to stop. How are we able to make America great again with this kind of behavior? Our president can only do so much. It is up to us to do our part too. Parents need to pay more attention to what their children are doing and what is being done to their children. This book was written as a teaching tool. Lydia Greico has a masters degree in occupational studies and is licensed as a psychiatric technician. Psychiatric technicians advocate for people who cannot advocate for themselves. Ms. Greico is now retired from this profession, but she still advocates for those who need it. Lydia Greico has authored two other books and articles on different subjects. She earned her MA degree from California State University at Long Beach in 2006. It is the authors hope that someone will learn from Because Its Wrong and aid in her campaign against bullying. Without bullying, we can make our children safer and decrease suicides that are the result of this type of treatment. May God bless all the children who were bullied so bad that they saw no other way out but to commit suicide.

Learning to Teach

Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135602581
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 187
Book Description
This text is designed to assist preservice and inservice teachers in creating a critical and reflective dialogue with themselves, their assigned classroom cultures, and the larger school environment. It engages readers in a series of classroom and school-based activities, observations, and exercises that can be used in any teacher education course with a field component. Different from other field experience guides, this text aims to disrupt traditional conceptions of teacher education and field experiences--by emphasizing the problematic nature and dynamics of public schooling, and encouraging readers to seek a greater awareness of their own attitudes toward and connections with these educational processes.Learning to Teach: A Critical Approach to the Field Experience, Second Edition: *dramatically reconceptualizes the field experience by asking preservice and inservice teachers to be active and critical researchers of classroom practices and processes; *provides a coherent framework for analyzing both structural and cultural aspects of schooling; *provides specific exercises to help preservice and inservice teachers evaluate and understand the intersections of race, class, gender, and culture in "real life" school settings; and *grounds the observations of everyday school life within critical, feminist, and poststructuralist discourses. New in the Second Edition: A new section,"No Child Left Untested," has been added to help preservice teachers explore the implications of a very changed post-September 11world in which xenophobia, violence, patriotism, citizenship, and democracy have taken on new meanings. The introduction to the book as a whole, the section introductions, the retained activities in existing sections, and the references have been throughly updated.
