Bullying and cyberbullying among teenagers
Students bully weaker peers at school by deliberately and repeatedly hurting and upsetting them in several ways; by calling them names, hitting or threatening them and playing nasty games. It is not bullying when two students of about the same strength quarrel or have a fight.
Cyberbullying means the use of the Internet and mobile phones to send offensive messages or to transmit information whose purpose is to damage a person’s reputation or his friendly relationships with others. So, it means that somebody use electronic media for hostile, deliberate, and repetitive behavior toward peers in order to cause them pain, hurt, or harm.
This study is done in the TECPC - Together Everyone Can Prevent Cyberbullying (2020-1-RO01-KA226-SCH-095269) project, in the framework of the Erasmus+ Programme – KA2 Strategic Partnerships Digital Education Readiness.
