Bullying

Bullying

Bullying is not confined to playgrounds, rather it can be experienced by people of any age, ethnicity, gender and in any context where people interact (eg. school, workplace, online). Stories of bullies and the bullied and the long lasting or sometimes immediately tragic impact that bullying has on everyone involved are grabbing headlines lately... when video game makers decide to make a title to combat a problem, you know it has reached crisis proportions. It is my hope that this webquest will stimulate the deep thinking required to foster a profound understanding of bullying, regardless of the student's exposure to it already.
