This
article “When Bullying Goes High-tech,” is about cyber-bullying in the United
States, as well as a boys experience with cyber-bullying in middle school. With
my topic being online bullying or harassment of students, this article
compliments it very well. This article on cyber-bullying from CNN provides a
real life encounter with cyber-bullying. The article is to provide those who are
oblivious to cyber-bullying with information that can quickly change their
perspective. From reading this article, it was written by someone with the
expertise to author all of the information. From reading this article and
looking at the publication date, I would have to say that this article is up to
date, being published back in 2013. I
believe that this article was an excellent choice as to present the public with
information about cyber-bullying. I think that if everyone heard the encounters
that victims of cyber-bullying have had to face, then more people would be
willing to do something to prevent it from happening to any student, from
kindergarten to 12th grade.
"Cyberbullying Effects on Society." No
Bullying Expert Advice on Cyber Bullying School Bullying. 4 Apr. 2014. Web. 29 Sept. 2014. http://nobullying.com/is-society-to-blame-for-cyber-bullying.
This article on cyber-bullying talks about Society’s
effects on society. In today’s society, the news is filled with hatred,
violence, and crime, it is probable that cyber-bullying is becoming more common
in today’s society. Those who are either being cyber bullied, or who are cyber
bullying people are students who come from a single family home, or a home with
very little parental supervision. With the direction in which society is going,
those students who come from a broken family, whose parents constantly bicker,
or even if there is an absence of one parent are the ones who cyber bully
others to make them feel better about life.
I believe that this article was written by someone who is constantly
researching the topic of cyber-bullying and have had enough exposure to the
topic that they understand. Since cyber-bullying and/or harassment has become so
common in today’s day and age, I believe that it is important that everyone
needs to be aware of both the causes and effects that cyber-bullying has on both
the victim and the bully, and as well as how much impact society has on cyber-bullying.
The True Faces of Cyberbullying. YouTube., 27 Apr. 2014. Web. 1 Oct. 2014.
This video was created by a student who took comments made anonymously by cyber-bullies and said these cruel comments to random peoples faces that he came across. After watching this whole video, I was able to comprehend that the person who decided to make this video knows what he is talking about. I believe that this video shows that although some may think it is funny to cyber bully someone with these comments, it truly hurts them and can do a lot of harm. Overall, I think this video should be showed to students in schools so they can see how cruel comments can affect ones life.
