Cyberbullying by Adolescents: A Preliminary Assessment
Strom, Paris S.; Strom, Robert D.
Educational Forum, The, v70 n1 p21-36 Fall 2005
A new threat has arisen for which teachers, administrators, and parents admit they are poorly prepared. Cyberbullying--electronic forms of peer harassment--is becoming increasingly prevalent and often originates beyond the legal reach of the school. This presentation describes how cyberbullying differs from other forms of mistreatment, cites examples of Internet intimidation, identifies procedures for responding to electronic threats, explores implications for teachers and parents, recommends questions for initial research, and presents a poll for schools to use in assessing student experience with cyberbullying.
