Abstract

Blogging, social networks, e-mails, instant messaging, and web-forums are different ways that today's technologically savvy culture can communicate with others all across the world. Although beneficial, some have used these popular online forms of communication to harm others, thus termed cyberbullying. The purpose of this paper is to define cyberbullying within the context of bullying, describe its characteristics, and discuss current research and tips on what administrators in k-12 settings can do to prevent cyberbullying.
