This video provides an archive of a professional development webinar presented by Kelly Mendoza from Common Sense Media on May 23, 2012. Increasingly, state laws are being passed and schools are incorporating cyberbullying into their policies and curriculum. In this session Common Sense Media introduces their free Cyberbullying Toolkit, which offers resources that will help educators jump-start cyberbullying education efforts in your school or district.

When Facing History teachers Jamie Lott and Mary Sok asked their World Cultures class about bullying at their school, the class described the hallways as safe. But after listening to a presentation given by hate crimes task force officer Dave D’Amico, they started a discussion about the widespread problem of online bullying, and how they as a class could take the first steps toward preventing it. Note: Not in Our Town offers a sample lesson plan that can be used in conjunction with this video.

The PACER Center in Minnesota has a special focus on supporting students with disabilities. The KIDS AGAINST BULLYING puppet show features five endearing multicultural, child-size puppets that portray children with and without disabilities. These puppets have proven to be a comfortable medium through which to teach children about bullying prevention. Opportunities exist throughout the presentation for children to learn through dialogue and question/answer. The KIDS AGAINST BULLYING Puppet Program is offered in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro area. Communities outside of Minneapolis have the option of purchasing the puppets and scripts.

The video shows students and teachers using “Conflict Resolution and U.S. History, ” an engaging way to learn history. Developed with the help of 30 prominent historians and more than 250 teachers nationwide, the teacher materials include 20 conflicts in American history from the Colonial Period through the Twentieth Century. Each case study has extensive historical background, short biographies of key historical figures, an examination of the issues and multiple perspective and an analysis of the consequences. An accompanying CD includes thousands of primary source documents, maps, images, and classroom handouts.
