Another term we learned about was the offender. The offender is the bully. If someone is trying to harm you or hurt you physically or verbally they are considered a bully.
The next two terms are up-stander and bystander. An up-stander is someone who takes up for the victim. The bystander is a witness who does nothing to help the victim in anyway.
The last two terms we learned about this week was escalate and deescalate. Escalate is to intensify or increase. Deescalate is to decrease in intensity.
A way for the target to not make the situation between you and the bully more intense you could ignore them. If it is on a social media site you could block or even report them. You could even confront them about it and just ask them to stop.
Cyber-bullying is our digital literacy component for the week. Most people do not know what this is and do not know this is a growing problem not just in the United States but all over the world.
Cyber-bullying is the exact same thing as bullying in person except worse.
When you cyber-bully, it is online for everyone in the world who wants to see. It is also there forever. So, this is very bad for our children of the world. It is bad for every one in the world to see because it could lead to the point were everybody gets in on it and could make you do something you would regret. This is also not good because when it is out on the internet it could cause you problems in the future. It is bad for the children of our world because it can leave scars on there life
If you are a bully or just a bystander, stop bullying and for the bystanders and the bully become an up-stander. Our teacher had us make this video on how to go from being a bystander to an upstander.
She showed us this really cool site called WeVideo.com. It is this website that allows you to make and edit videos.
The negative aspect of this website is it is very complicated to use if you are not very good with computers.
The positive aspect of this tool is it can be used to teach people about things, entertain people, or let people know about important topics or events.
This will help me make better decisions in my life because we have seen things that kids have done through cyberbullying and I do not want to be apart of it. I will start treating people better online and off. This will hopefully change my life and point it in a better direction.
Overall my week has been fantastic and could have probably not went any better. I have learned alot from my teachers. I am liking the Gaston Early College Program alot and Hopefully going to graduate from this magnificent school.
Always I am ready for a good restful weekend.
