...to the article “Cyberbullying is a Serious Problem” by Andrew Schrock, cyberbullying is the new form of the physical bullying. He describes the different ways cyberbullying can be carried out, how victims of this can be affected and the perpetrators of cyberbullying.

...Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged children that involves a real or perceived power imbalance. Unfortunately, bullying is an unwanted service to many children around the world. Students who are bullied do not always have the ability to report and terminate the bullying. The results from the 2016 Presidential Election have increased bullying incidents because of ethnic and racial backgrounds. This article is entitled “Four Myths About School Bullying And the ‘Trump Effect” and certainly does give specific details about bullying and how Donald Trump has affected and increased bullying. Hillary Clinton recently released a new school policy proposal, her intention was to hurt her opponent and give her an advantage in the election. Clinton’s plan was to launch a $500 million initiative called “Better than Bullying.” The money would come from states who would have to pass laws and construct school-based interventions, and many other plans to receive the money. Although, the federal government would also help the states pay for Clinton’s bullying plan....

...Informative Speech: Cinco de Mayo gives most Americans a reason to drink tequila, eat tacos, and party hard. Today I will explain the history behind this holiday, common misconceptions, and why it is celebrated. According to History.com, Cinco De Mayo took place on May 5th 1862. It commemorates the Mexican army's victory over France at the Battle of Puebla. What was the reason behind the Battle of Puebla? Simply put, Mexico had trouble paying back war debts to European countries, and France had come to collect on this debt. To understand the significance of this victory, consider at the time of this battle, the French army was considered the premier army of the world. 6500 well armed French Troops went head to head against 4700 under equipped Mexican Soldiers. They battled fiercely for 2 hours, until the French were forced to retreat. The Mexican Soldiers thru sheer will and determination had defeated the most powerful army in the entire world. The reason Americans celebrate this holiday is that we appreciate the cultural signifigance of what this battle represents. (Victory in the face of great odds and the Patriotism it generated). A common misconception made with Cinco De Mayo is that it celebrates Mexicos Independence. According to Wikipedia,. Mexico celebrates its independence on September 16, because it was on that day in 1810 that Father Miguel Hidalgo[->0] took to his pulpit in the village church of the town of Dolores and invited his flock to take up arms and join him[->1]...

...Running head: School and community- based childhood bullying programs that actually works | 1 | School and community- based childhood bullying programs that actually works Corine Borum COM 156 May 19, 2013 Dr. Jeffrey Pietruszynski Over 3.2 million students are victims of bullying each year. Bullying is persistent, unwelcomed behavior, using unwarranted or invalid criticism, nit-picking, fault finding, also exclusion and/or isolation. The answer to bullying may not be how to stop bullying but how to prepare for it. Bullying is a horrible thing, but only if you allow it. You have the power to decide what hurts you and what doesn’t. You can make the needed change in your life and give yourself happiness and joy despite what the bullies have tried to instill in you. A good school-and-community-based childhood bullying program is essential for the prevention of bullying, harassment and violence in the student population. “With ignorance comes fear-from fear comes bigotry. Education is the key to acceptance.” (Kathleen Patel). There is no cure for stupidity, but ignorance can simply be solved by taking time out of one’s day to become educated. Educating ourselves and others is the key to controlling bullying and preparing one’s self for the effects bullying may have on the bullied. Who would have known that...

...Anti-Bullying Programs Maryann Johnston DeVry University Anti-Bullying Programs “You may have noticed that this years’ trendy trauma is bullying, which replaces last years’ obesity.” (Nachman, 2011). In his article Gerald Nachman recounts how years ago it was a part of being a kid in school to be teased at some point and it made you a stronger person to come through school surviving the process. There has been an increase in the sensational media coverage of violence attributed to bullying. Almost weekly, there are headline news items concerning acts of violence committed on school grounds, which involve shootings of innocent students by disgruntled gunmen. The underlying cause is portrayed to be a result of some sort of bullying at the hands of peers. One such incident which occurred in an Ohio High School resulted in the death of three students. The gunman’s motives were not clear but, “Yet even as police worked to secure the crime scene, one word quickly attached to the unfolding drama: bullying.” (Cloud, 2012). Further investigation discovered a connection to one of the victims through a former girlfriend of the shooter. The gunman had a troubled family situation which may have contributed to his resorting to violence as a solution. His case was one of bullying his classmates while being a victim of his rough childhood. As a result of these news items there has been a furor which has reached all the way to the President, who has urged school officials to push for legislation...

... Stuttering is a communication disorder that includes core behaviors of part-word repetitions, prolongations, and tense hesitations (Bloodstein & Bernstein Ratner, 2008). Also included in the definition of stuttering are secondary behaviors, which can include actions that are aimed to escape or avoid the moment of stuttering (Bloodstein & Bernstein Ratner, 2008). Typically stuttering begins in early childhood and continues through adulthood. There are many negative emotions that can develop in individuals who stutter. These feelings can be heightened by embarrassing or humiliating situations or bullying in schools. This may lead to elevated levels of both social and trait anxiety. Negative emotions can build up in these individuals and lead to an increase in anxiety while speaking or in social situations. Negative life experiences can include unfavorable listener reactions, bullying, social rejection, stereotyping, and educational and occupational challenges (Iverach, Menzies, O'Brian, Packman, & Onslow, 2011b). According to Iverach et al. (2009), some of the emotions that can be experienced in adults include helplessness, embarrassment, shame, disappointment, and fear. A more surprising occurrence is “around 40% of adults who have a chronic stutter will meet the criteria of social anxiety disorder” (Blumgart, Tran, & Craig, 2010, p. 691). This means an individual with a stutter will feel a tremendous amount of embarrassment or fear of social situations and social contexts (Blumgart...

...CHAPTER TWO Review of Literature Introduction Current educational research on bullying imbedded in bullying programs instruct Educators on how to handle different aspects of bullying episodes and, on how to instill an understanding of student’s perceptions of bullying incidents, however, not all teachers have the same perception of bullying interactions. Everyone comes to the table with their own set of definitions and perspectives based upon their background and upbringing. There is a need to examine these varied perceptions and understandings and how people in schools define and respond to bullying. There are critical gaps in the existing research on this subject and by identifying and understanding teacher perceptions of bullying in this time frame of 2013, response to incidents involving student bullying will provide useful insights while also providing future researchers points of comparison. The purpose of Chapter Two is to support examination of my body of research and to determine similarities and differences in teacher perceptions of bullying in their schools. Background information will be provided to the reader on the kinds of bullying and their definitions, and what affects accompany bullying episodes and current existing attitudes about bullying. Review of the Related Literature Bullying has been come to be defined as the repeated aggressive behavior that can be either physical, psychological to...

...BULLYING BOYS: AN EXAMINATION OF HEGEMONIC MASCULINITY IN THE PLAYGROUND Dr L Trickett1 ABSTRACT Violence between young men, particularly resulting from the emergence of a so called ‘gun and knife culture’, is currently subject to extensive media coverage in UK2. Alongside this there has been increased anxiety about both the scale and impact of bullying in schools (Cawson et al, 2002; Tyler, 2002). These issues form part of a more generalised concern about men and boys in Britain often referred to as a ‘crisis of masculinity’ (see Clare, 2000). This article examines findings from research with male respondents about their relationship with hegemonic masculinity (Connell, 1987, 1989, 1995, 2005) and bullying whilst at school and makes suggestions as to what can be done to tackle abusive behaviour amongst boys and young men. 1 Dr Loretta Tricket is a Senior Lecturer and researcher with the Nottingham Law School, Nottingham Trent University, UK. 2 See Lockhart, G; McClory, J and Qvortrup, M. (2007) Gun and Knife Crime in Great Britain, Policy Exchange, Research Note. Knife crime is a fact of life for teenagers (Bryony Gardon, telegraph.co.uk, 31 May 2008). 2 Introduction This article is in five parts. Part One outlines the theoretical background to the research.

...2012 Violence in the workplace has become so bad throughout each state and in the world today. Workplace violence has not only cost American employers in dollars but also in cents. The violence has been taking its toll on the employees day to day. There are beyond numerous numbers of nonfatal acts of violence in the workplace. Who would have thought that waking up in the morning and going to work would be so bad and targeted by violence, discrimination and even some retaliation at work? This has become so sad and disturbing. Now-a-days, children cannot even go to school without being bullied or harassed. The article that was chosen is called “Trends in the Workplace Violence in the Remote Area Nursing Workforce”. This is a very informative article that speaks about the types of violence and how it has increased within the last decade. The article has taken some of the present data of violence in the workplace and compared it to the data that was collected about 13 years ago. The setting of this article took place in Australia and was focused on a few hundred nurses whom worked in rural areas throughout Australia, who worked in the health facilities. According to the article it stated that there has been an “increase in all incidents” that were “reported violence in the workplace between 1995 and 2008” (Opie, Lenthall, & Dollard, 2010). Several times of violence that had been reported were either verbal aggression, physical and property damage. The three types of violence...

This source is more of what teenage bullying really is from the start to where it is now. It is more of an informative article to help you to understand teenage bullying a little better. This source meets that the definition of credible because it come from the ITT Virtual Library which consists of books, periodical databases that provide access to journals, authoritative encyclopedias, and subject dictionaries. This is a definition within the source that defines Asperger syndrome; “Asperger syndrome: A neurological disorder associated with autism that is characterized by normal intelligence and language development, but marked by deficiencies in social and communication skills. Such individuals can easily become victims of bullying”. This source would be accepted by an academic paper because it shows all its sources and come from an encyclopedia which is made up of factual information. The second source is a government site that informs people about bullying and gives you information in preventing it. The title that I came across when using the site was “Bullying Definition”. This source is more of an informational source that helps others to learn the effects of teenage bullying and give you information on how one can stop it from happening if you come across a bullying situation. “Bullying is unwanted, aggressive behavior among school aged...
