Dttls Assignment 2

Teachers should never be able to bully students. Teachers bully their students by pulling pranks on them, humiliating them in class, saying rude or belittling things, causing unnecessary stress or fear, or putting the student in danger in any way. Students need guidance and knowledge from their teachers, and a teacher must show that they care about their students to get great results. When the teacher becomes the bully, students cannot get the most out of their classes. Students and other school staff members must work together to stop unfair or unprofessional teacher

Bullying has become a more pressing and prevalent problem over the past decade. Bullying can be seen and described as many different things and has many different meanings. There is adult bullying, bullying in school, bullying at work, etc. Bullying can be visual, verbal, and physical. There have been many instances where bullying has gone too far due to lack of involvement with authority. Bullying can cause many problems and lead to tragedies such as suicide. Anti-bullying is a term for preventing or stopping the act of bullying. People have seen that bullying is a problem and have tried many tactics to combat it. People have founded programs, started rallying, and have hosted events in hopes to suppress or even stop bullying, but they are

Teacher and parent awareness is one of main obstacles in preventing bullying prevention. Teachers and parents do not take bullying as being serious and underestimate the effects it has on children (Cohen, 2008). It is reported that 85% of teachers think they intervene to stop bullying, however only 35% of students feel that teachers do (Cohen, 2008). Many parents and teachers do not have the proper knowledge on what establishes bullying. They see bullying as only being violence and ignore the verbal assaults that are occurring (Cohen, 2008). They do not know the signs to look for and have not been properly trained on how to resolve the issue (Cohen, 2008).

The concept of bullying in the school system has been linked to many homicides and

3) The Teaching Staff, teaching staff should intervene at the first sign of any bullying, they must keep records of all incidents that happen involving children in their class, if they see another child from another class being bullied or bullying they should immediately inform that childs class teacher so they can intervene and monitor the situation. Teachers routinely liase with each other through staff meetings and discuss existing or new anti-bullying strategies.

Since elementary school up to high school I was a victim of bullying. In elementary their favorite nickname was "poopy ball" and their favorite way to hit me was by pushing me to the wall and destroying my things. In middle school it was not just one nickname, but different nicknames such as "ugly Betty", "fat", "disgusting", etc. I was no longer pushed around, but it hurt just as much to listen to my classmates call me names every day. I would look in the mirror and find that every single part of my body was wrong. They degraded me to the point where I was not only a victim of bullying, but I became a victim of anorexia, bulimia, and depression. The summer before ninth grade I decided to commit suicide. I couldn’t take anymore humiliation or pain. However, I was unsuccessful and this experience helped shaped my goals, dreams, and beliefs.

As stories like Moniques and other people demonstrates, there are policies out there that just simply do not work.. One is called zero-tolerance policies, and while these succeed at sending the message that bullying is not tolerated, there are several problems with them. Nora M. Findlay believes, “ One of the most serious problems inherent in zero tolerance is that it treats dissimilar problems in a similar way” (6). Secondly, “Students and teachers may be less likely to report and address bullying if suspension or expulsion is the consequence” (United States Department of Health and Human Services). Two other policies that are used but never works is called peer-mediation, and conflict resolution. The United States Department of Health and Human Services stresses, “Conflict involves antagonism among two or more people. Whereas any two people can have a conflict (or a disagreement or a fight) bullying only occurs when there is a power imbalance-where one child has a hard time defending himself or herself” (“Myths about Bullying” sect. 1). This difference is very important to be aware of because these strategies can make the people being bullied feel even worse. Not only that, but it sends the message that all children share equal blame, which is definitely not an appropriate message. The message to the person being bullied should be,

The truth is, life isn’t fair; so stop saying it is. “You get what you get, and don’t throw a fit.” In my opinion, that phrase is absolute crap. Most of the time, you get what you get because people are inconsideret, self centered pricks. They only think about themselves and not the feelings of others. One of the biggest lies I have ever heard “I’m sorry.” Are you? Are you really sorry? Or are you just saying that so I won’t hate you and you get a bad name? Yeah, exactly. Another lie I have been told, “This school does not tolerate bullying.” Or “We are a bully free zone.” Well, when someone get’s bullied and it’s turned in what do you do? Oh, you talk to the kid and hope it never happens again? Yeah, because that’s going to teach

For this assignment the task is to plan a successful trip to either a ‘castle’ or the ‘woods.’ Throughout the module it has been about discussing how children learn and most importantly where. Learning is defined only in the classroom, children learn every second of every day regardless in and out of the classroom. Every individual is unique and each child has different learning styles, some are able to learn at a desk whilst others learn through doing, it is a teacher’s job to know of these styles in order for a child to succeed. “Individual children have different learning styles or preferred ways of interacting with the environment. When learning styles are taken into account learning can be enhanced..” [DCELLS ii 2008:10]

Schools are having to update their code of conduct because of new circumstances that the schools face. Schools have to consider every aspect, otherwise the schools may find themselves being sued by the student’s parents. Bullying and harassment has increased throughout the years. Not only that, but it has become more severe. Teenagers have committed suicide because of this. There used to only be bullying face-to-face. However, because of technology and social media, bullies are now able to bully and harass others without having to be next to the person. Schools used to not have any control of what happened to students outside of school, but because of many furious parents suing schools for not doing anything, these schools have to consider

Having a good policy that clearly explains the procedures for preventing and responding to bullying behavior is important for all schools to have. Bullying should not be tolerated, and all staff should not allow any bullying at school to occur. All children have rights, no matter who they are, or what language they speak. All schools have a duty give children an education in a safe environment.

Over the years bullying has become a problem. It affects kids to even adults. Bullying is a problem here a Buhach and the students should be aware of how to handle a bully. Don’t think that it can’t happen to you because bullying can happen to everyone regardless of your age.

The difficulty of creating a new and effective idea is immense in today’s society, and establishing a code of conduct is no exception. A code of conduct is important material that can be used to solve many cases, but it is not a comprehensive solution when left on its own. There are many factors that lead to the code to result in being completely defective, and one being that schools lack the necessary ideas to help accommodate all specific needs and individuals. The code of conduct is a constant debatable topic that has to be updated frequently in order to appeal to the alternating societal issues that are bullying and harassment. This has become a substantial problem in society in the past decades, ever since the introduction of social media

One of every five students is bullied each year (Bullying Basics,2017). Knowing that the problem of bullying is a large possibility in their classrooms, administrators’ and teachers’ main goal must be to offer a safe classroom and a positive, supportive learning environment to their students. If they work together to reach this goal, bullying can be

Bullying is a big issue in the world these days. It is our job as teachers to address this issue in our classroom and teach children that bullying is not ok.
