Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report details the results of an inquiry into the Method of Shared Concern, a non-punitive method of addressing cases of bullying in schools. The method was applied in 17 actual cases of bullying in Australian primary and secondary schools in 2008. Detailed accounts of these cases were obtained, focusing on: what the practitioner did in applying the method, the decisions they made and the outcomes achieved at each stage of the process; how the students involved in the intervention actually reacted; what problems were encountered; reflections of the practitioner and researcher on the applications. The effectiveness of the method was judged according to two criteria: whether application of the method brought about a cessation or reduction in the bullying; the effects on other persons taking part in the interventions process, including those who had participated and the person acting as the practitioner. Recommendations are included in the report.

  • Author : Ken Rigby
  • Publisher : Aust Council for Ed Research
  • Release : 2007
  • ISBN : 0864314477
  • Pages : 346 pages

Download or read book Bullying in Schools written by Ken Rigby and published by Aust Council for Ed Research. This book was released on 2007 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bullying is now widely recognised as a serious problem that affects many children in schools. It can take many forms, including direct verbal and physical harassment and indirect forms such as deliberate exclusion and the targeting of individuals using cyber technology. Continual and severe bullying can cause both short term and long term damage, making it difficult for victims to form intimate relationships with others and for habitual bullies to avoid following a delinquent lifestyle and becoming perpetrators of domestic violence. Even though this type of abuse affects many of our school children, Ken Rigby believes there are grounds for optimism. This passionate and motivating book shows that there are ways of reducing the likelihood of bullying occurring in a school and effective ways of tackling cases when they do occur. Using up-to-date studies, Bullying in Schools helps us to understand the nature of bullying and why it so often takes place in schools. Importantly, it examines and evaluates what schools can do to promote more positive peer relationships within the school community and take effective and sustainable action to deal with problems that may arise. Teachers, parents, school leaders, policy makers, and health professionals will find it invaluable and empowering.
