• In Event: Posters - Thursday
  In Poster Session: Posters I - SICET

Short Description

This study employed a quantitative survey approach to gain a holistic understanding of how and what school staff copes with student cyberbullying and found that most teachers reported that some cell phone bullying occurred in students, so our school staff and parents need to pay much attention to children’s use of cell phone. In addition, when school principals learned about school bullying or cyberbullying, they usually reported to school administrator, ministry of education, or students’ parents. However, when teachers deal with cyberbullying, only half of them would report to school administrator, ministry of education, or students’ parents. A possible explanation may be that teachers think cyberbullying is not a big deal or they do not know how to cope with the bullying occurred in cyberspace. Future study should collect qualitative data to further explore this issue.
