Lesson Reflections Jackie Miller

• Students are evaluated through group participation in class discussion, class reflections and the use of the interactive website on their laptops.

Using video scenarios as a teaching tool can:

1. Provide a common language for students to comfortably talk about bullying behaviors and incidents of bullying that students may encounter.

2. Provide concrete examples for students to visualize bullying behaviors from multiple perspectives and to assume points of view different from their own. This opens discussions about how bullying affects individuals and is particularly effective in empowering bystanders to consider ways to address bullying.

3. Provide concrete opportunities to discuss school rules, expectations about students’ behavior, and the role of adults in helping to stop bullying.
