Preventing and addressing cyberbullying requires a collective effort from parents, educators, policymakers, and technology companies. Strategies include promoting digital literacy and responsible online behavior, fostering open communication with children about their online activities, implementing strict anti-bullying policies in schools and workplaces, and providing support and resources for victims of cyberbullying.

I think it is a type of cyberbullying, when in an online video game ( for example WoW or LoL) people just blame on others for their terrible play. Sometimes gamers wish each others death.

Although I haven’t encountered an issue related to cyberbullying at my school so far, I’ve run across bullying off line and alienation as well.

Las situaciones de bullying se presentaban en la escuela principalmente en segmentación social asociada a diferencias económicas y culturales, para ello se creo un comité de prevención de estas actitudes respaldado con conversaciones con los alumnos mediante un programa que se llama: "say something" para poder abrir un canal de conversación en este tipo de situación.

Unfortunately we had some cyberbullying situations at our school. Some were with fake profiles on FB, some with unwanted photos and videos. Fortunately though there are always teens, kids who want to make the difference and help others, and thanks to them and to lots of work we solved the problems (hopefully for good)

# data[].attributes.body
Not even cyberbullying, but sometimes some little things, that might lead to cyberbullying, if there is no interaction like to speak with pupils about the borders and responsibility in own behavior.

# data[].attributes.body
I have't cases of bullying, small episodes of quarrels that could have been serious, but immediately me and my colleagues intervened. uring the first period of the year we face the problem of cyberbullying and projected videos to raise awareness among students and show that they can rely on professors or parents for these problems

# data[].attributes.body
One year 3 child sent an email to another classmate with some inappropriate vocabulary. The other child told me - as I was their teacher and I talked to both of them; the following lesson we watched with the class some videos about empathy and did also some activities on this subject.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes. There were two cases in my school. The aggressors were even victims’ mates. They were quickly discovered because they “praised” to their acquaintances. The last ones came to teachers and we made a team. When they were caught and discovered, they recognized their bad deeds and when they were asked to say why they did it, they said that there were only jokes: they wanted to joke with their mates because the victims showed their own passwords! The parents were informed and all the involved parts (both victims and aggressors) were included in individual counseling programs.

Not at our school but I was very suprised when I heard about teachers being bulied by other teachers, especially one of them who seemed to consider his behaviour as a kind of acceptable joke or irony.

What worries me the most is that we have had cases of cyberbullying in Elementary. What we have started doing is, besides talking to the parents and suspending the kid, they have to sign an online behavior contract with the principal, we took this from Childnet.

# data[].attributes.body
As a Middle School teacher, it is common to hear about bullying, however you must be sure before acting, and confirm that it is really repetitive and no a one time only.
If we are not sure, we can always count with student support services.

# data[].attributes.body
We have several situations each year but one that happened with my class was the case of a student who apparently took a picture of another in school with is mobile phone and made him believe that he had published the photo online. The offended student reported to me, I then talked to the student who took the photo and was possible to take a printscreen of the facebook post, so the bully couldn’t deny his acts.

Parents were informed of the situation and asked to be more alert. The school, supported by its internal regulations, which is in accordance with the law, punished the bully.

# data[].attributes.body
After poll data in our school, students have faced cyberbullying, playing online games. Some had a threat of killing them and their relatives. Too serious students didn't take it, but it they were told to think how with people could play online games. We discussed in the lesson that, how fake profiles can be recognized, and that suspicious profiles should be reported to site providers and block these profiles. I suggested about cyberbullying to speak with parents, with teachers, with trusted people, or to call the trust phone 116111.

# data[].attributes.body
We has an issue at school with cyberbullying where one of our students was receiving anonymous messages from someone we assumed from the messages that attends the our school. We supported the victim through our student support services team, informed the parents and had assemblies and PSHE lesson  about cyberbullying for all our students.

We had one situation when one student took a picture of another student and put it on Facebook. It took a couple of days to discover a problem, but likely both parents collaborated with a teacher, psychologist and director.

I had a case that envolved two students. One of them used the email of the other and sent inconvenience messages to various contacts.

I have never noticed a case of cyberbullying in my school. However, I'm sure there were some that I did not notice because it is a very common issue nowadays. Thus, I will pay more attention from now on.

# data[].attributes.body
I had a case of cyberbullying in my class about an year ago. There was an pupil that would receive some messages with inadequated images. One day he told me about it and I disscused the issue with the parents. We were given the name of the person who did this and we were shown the messages and images. We diresctly addressed the other kid, because it happened to be one of the students from our school as well. As soons as we (the adults) got involved, the bullying stopped. Sometimes young people just feel like they can't do anything about the situation and there are times when things cand be solved just by talking things out, that's why it's very important to keep a close relation if possible.

# data[].attributes.body
At the moment being there is no complaint or any kind of bringing to attention of case of cyberbullying in the educational institution I actually serve but... Any kind of bullying, including cyberbullying are usually targeting those who suffer the bullying phenomena in silence. Actually dealing with the bullying phenomena is sporadic and in most cases in an not entirely professional approach.

# data[].attributes.body
Usual cases of cyberbullying I have encountered involved social media, that is, students commenting inappropriately on other's statuses. Once I saw a case, where students bullied another student online because her dog had an operation and ended with only one eye. They would call her dog names such as 'he looks like a cockroach now', which made the student cry. This was addressed by the staff at school.

# data[].attributes.body
Two students posted an inappropriate video of their classmate on FB. The situation was resolved in a way that students and parents had conversation with headmaster and a psychologist, two guilty students were given a written warning about their behavior from teacher’s council and the whole class attended cyberbullying workshops.

# data[].attributes.body
At my school Cyberbulling is becoming more complex, one case in particular was about a whatsapp group from kids were they posted pictures and messages that tend to be annoying for other kids. The main problem is that the school has a mobile devices zero policy at school, also it is forbidden to any minor of 13 years old to have any kind of social media account, we can´t do anything unless one kid says something to any authority. The only thing that we can do in this cases is to send an e-mail to parents reminding them the rules of our school but parents are neglecting this and they are actually doing formal complains about cyberbullying when we the school has made very clear that it is forbidden that a minor has a social media account.

Inform yourself to protect yourself!

Cyberbullying is a worldwide problem and one that is growing - fast! Because cyberbullying can happen in a variety of ways, each of which needs to be dealt with differently, it's important that you are able recognize them. In this blog post we take you through the 10 forms of cyberbullying so that you have the knowledge to protect your children.

Before we consider the different forms, it is important to define what we mean by cyberbullying.

"Cyberbullying is the use of inappropriate behaviour, strength or influence, whether directly or indirectly, and whether verbal, written, physical or through displays of or use of imagery, symbols or otherwise, to intimidate, torment, threaten, harass or embarrass others, using the Internet or other technology, such as mobile telephones." David Fagan, Lawyer, BizLegal.eu

1. Exclusion

Exclusion is the deliberate act of leaving you out.

Exclusion is the deliberate act of leaving someone out.

Exclusion can happen in a number of ways:

Your child might be excluded from friends' parties or activities.

Your child's friends are having online conversations and tagging other friends but not them.

Your child isn't using social networking sites or doesn't have a smartphone and is deliberately excluded from conversations by others because of this.

2. Harassment

Harassment is a sustained, constant and intentional form of bullying comprising abusive or threatening messages sent to your child or to a group.

This is a very dangerous form of cyberbullying. It can have serious implications for your child's wellbeing. The messages are generally unkind or malicious, can impact their self-esteem and confidence, and can make them fearful. The constant messaging means that there is no respite from the cyberbully. The cyberbully makes extreme effort to cause fear and pain.

3. Outing

Outing is a deliberate act to embarrass or publicly humiliate your child or a group through the online posting of sensitive, private or embarrassing information without their consent.

Outing can happen in a variety of ways and the information revealed can be serious or trivial. Even reading out your child's saved messages on their mobile phone can be considered a form of outing. Personal information should not be shared and if someone reveals private information deliberately be sure your child knows to report it as cyberbullying

4. Cyberstalking

This form of cyberbullying can extend to the cyberbully making real threats to your child's physical wellbeing and/or safety. Cyberstalking can also refer to the practice of adults using the Internet to contact and attempt to meet with young people for sexual purposes. It is a very dangerous form of cyberbullying and can have serious consequences if something isn't done immediately to stop it.

5. Fraping

Fraping is when somebody logs into your social networking account and impersonates your child by posting inappropriate content in their name.

Fraping is a very serious offence, which many people believe to be funny and entertaining, but it's not. Impersonating somebody online and ruining their reputation can have serious consequences. Remember Google never forgets so everything rude or otherwise posted online will never be fully gone, even if deleted.

6. Fake Profiles

Fake profiles can be created in order for a person to hide their real identity with the intention of cyberbullying your child.

The cyberbully might also use someone else's email or mobile phone to cyberbully them. This would make it appear as if someone else has sent the threats. The cyberbully is afraid in case their identity is revealed, therefore they choose to use fake accounts. This usually means that the cyberbully is someone that your child knows very well, because if they didn't know them, the perpetrator wouldn't have to hide their identity.

7. Dissing

Dissing is the act of sending or posting cruel information about your child online, to damage their reputation or friendships with others.

It can also include posting material online such as photos, screenshots or videos. The cyberbully wants to put your child down, so draws attention to what they are saying about them to make other people think they're not cool. The cyberbully is usually someone your child knows. This can make it really upsetting.

8. Trickery

Trickery is the act of gaining your child's trust so that they reveal secrets or embarrassing information that the cyberbully then shares publicly online.

The cyberbully will 'befriend' your child and lead them into a false sense of security before breaking their trust and sending their private information to a third party.

9. Trolling

Tolling is the deliberate act of provoking a response through the use of insults or bad language on online forums and social networking sites.

The troll will personally attack your child and put them down. Their main aim is to make them angry enough to act in the same way. Trolls spend their time looking for vulnerable people to put down. Usually they are looking to make themselves feel good by making others feel bad.

10. Catfishing

Catfishing is when another person steals your child's online identity, usually photos, and re-creates social networking profiles for deceptive purposes.

A catfish is someone who wants to hide who they are. They will look at your child's social networking profile and take any information they want to create a fake persona. Sometimes they will only take your child's photos and use fake names and information; at other times they could take their name and personal information. It can be hard to understand why a catfish does this but it is important to know that they are potentially damaging your child's online reputation.

Please share this blog post with other parents you know so that they can inform themselves on the 10 forms of cyberbullying. Thank you for being a good digital citizen!

I work on the primary public sector in the province. Thre haven't been any reports not to mention that not all students have accounts or internet access.

I think the worst I have encountered is the creation of hate groups or pages about a person on social media.

# data[].attributes.body
One of my students took a photo of his friend during the swimming pool activities, and put it on the WhatsApp group. The groups laughed at him. When I informed it by the other students I informed immediately the Director and he had individual interviews with all students involved this situation. Then I informed  to both parents of cyberbullies and cyberbullied.  I expeced students would reflect their feelings with an empathic way to the WhatsApp group, but 2 or 3 (in a group of 24 members) didn't undestud why their behaivour was wrong. we are working in class.

# data[].attributes.body
We didn`t have that kind of situation in our school.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, we've had these problem at my school. They were mostly related with posting pictures and videos showing students in akward situations without their authorisation. School punishes students who do this, personally I try to use these situations to call students' atention to the fact that eveyone can be a victim so they should be careful. And of course to talk about respecting others

# data[].attributes.body
In my school (elementary) is difficult for kids to have an account in social media, so  cyberbullying is rare. Three years ago there was an issue between 4 girls who wrote in Fb against another. As we knew it, we called their parents and the problem was solved.

# data[].attributes.body
In my school, until now, I have not yet encountered or experienced any problem related to cyberbullying.

# data[].attributes.body
there are different kind of cyberbullying, fortunately in the school where I work these questions there aren't.

# data[].attributes.body
We work against cyberbullism in the school

# data[].attributes.body
I remember one situation in ma class. Three boys were involved. They didn't get on well with each other in the real world, so two off them moved the hate online. They've put some ridiculing photos of the third boy on a website. We solved it on the school level wtith headmistress, guidance counselor and parents. We worked with children of course.

# data[].attributes.body
I did not have situations.

I have never had a situation of cyberbulling in my teaching experienc. Sometimes, other collegues tell me that their students are involved in cyberbulling situations. I trie to tell them to remain calm and listen to students involved.

# data[].attributes.body
We had one situation. One girls

# data[].attributes.body
Sadly we have, however not too many cases. In on particular one was because they start criticizing another student in a "story" in Instagram

# data[].attributes.body
In the schools where I worked I have encountered cases of bullying and marginalization both in children and sometimes in some parents. The striking thing is that not all teachers realize, or rather prefer, I do not realize, the gravity of the problem by minimizing the situation or even exasperating it.

# data[].attributes.body
My students are young so we have not encountered cyberbullying in our school.

# data[].attributes.body
Actually I have never coped with cyberbullying during my teaching experience. I think if I had to deal with it, I would ask the help of the school community and start an educational action working with the family as well.
