Cyberbullying: Prevention and Response in Schools
A pupil shows you a screenshot, and what happens in the next ten minutes matters more than any policy document. This week you write your school's protocol for those ten minutes — and test it against what pupils can now generate of one another.
About this course
Five days on the three pillars of the EU action plan against cyberbullying, ending in one written incident protocol for your school. Monday — you place incidents against the three pillars of the EU action plan and name which pillar your school is least prepared for. Tuesday — you build prevention pupils agree to rather…
Methodology
The week is built on the three pillars of the European Commission's action plan against cyberbullying and on the channels that exist underneath it, so what participants take home connects to services that are already running in their own country.
Published and constructed incidents, role-play from the bystander's position, and case studies involving generated material — participants decide responses under the same ambiguity a real morning provides, rather than discussing bullying in general. Role-plays are optional and can be joined as an observer; no one is asked to share personal experience.
Everything converges on a written intervention protocol for the participant's own school, tested by colleagues against a live scenario before it is taken home.
What you'll take home
Place an incident (supplied, or a kind you know from your own school, without names) against the three pillars of the EU action plan, and name which pillar your school is least prepared for.
Set up prevention that pupils have agreed to rather than been told about, and recognise the signals that appear before an incident is reported.
Judge an incident involving generated images or a cloned voice: what the school handles, what has to go further, and what the law now says about non-consensual manipulated material.
Write and test an intervention protocol for your own school — who is told, in what order, within what time, through which channel, and how evidence is preserved.
