Cyber Bullying

What is Cyberbullying?

Cyberbullying is when someone uses the internet or mobiles to deliberately upset someone else. This is a form of bullying and you shouldn’t have to put up with it.
How is it different to normal bullying?
By using technology like mobiles or the internet, this type of bullying can affect someone not just at school, but at home as well. Because it takes place in the virtual world, it has a 24/7 nature and can make someone feel upset or threatened in their own home.It can sometimes be hard to identify who the cyberbully is because they could block their number or post things on a website anonymously. The nature of this type of bullying means it can have a large audience, many of whom may not even realise they are being bullies.
A positive thing about this kind of bullying is that it can be evidenced. With normal bullying, it can be one person’s word against another’s, but with cyberbullying you can save texts or print our emails / IM’s / WebPages. This can be used as proof to catch the bully and stop them upsetting someone; this could be you or a friend.. If you want more advice go to www.thinkuknow.co.uk

I.T Self Assesment

Self Assesment I.T.

I worked well in lessons because I learn new things in I.T. I could improve by using my computer more than just playing games on it. I think I will get a level 4-5 because I am quite good at I.T. and I also enjoy it too. I would try and improve myself on power point because I really don't use it that much. I will work differently by concentrating more in the lesson if we are working on power point. My target is to try and practice power point presentation at home so I get better at it.
