  4. Cyber Bullying • Bullies cannot use physical aggression over the Internet like they can with traditional bullying. • However, cyber bullying consists of verbal abuse such as teasing, sarcasm, and name calling. • The bullies cannot see the victim they are harming, causing them to be more abusive, and more reluctant to quit.

  5. Cyber Bullying Example • An overweight high school student named Ghyslain Raza was videotaped performing Star Wars moves. • Fellow classmates took this video and uploaded it to file sharing software. • It was downloaded by many people. • Raza was made fun of constantly at his school and everywhere he went.

  6. Cyber Bullying • Cyber bullying can occur in three different ways: • Chat Rooms and Blogs • Children can enter chat rooms and be verbally abused by other individuals. These children can be picked on by one individual, or many can gang up on them. • E-Mail • Individuals who have a victim’s email address can constantly leave rude emails, making fun of them. • Videos • Videos of a victim can be put up on the Internet for others to see. Video conferencing can also be a medium for cyber bullying.
