Cyberbullying and Ohio Schools: A Social Justice Framework to Understand and Create Change
Gerwig-Parker, Lorri A.; Tromski-Klingshirn, Donna; Kolssak, Rebecca; Miller, Joshua D.
Leadership and Research in Education, v5 n2 p50-77 2020
In 2019, 36.5% of students, age 12-17, reported that they were cyberbullied at some point in their life. Cyberbullying is a growing problem within Ohio. Self-mutilation, attempted suicide, and death have been linked to victims of cyberbullying. Within Ohio, there are also legal implications for schools to consider. Using Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems framework, different types of cyberbullies, bullying practices, and proposed solutions for cyberbullying can be addressed in a more comprehensive manner within the schools. Ultimately, schools can be the vanguards for social justice, creating the cultural shift to end cyberbullying and its devastating effects on victims.
