The EU BULLY research survey app ....................................................................................................... 11 Annex 1 ................................................................................................................................................. 14 2 Introduction This manual has been developed as part of the EU BULLY project (JUST/2013/DAP/AG/5364) to support teachers to address bullying with young people in schools, youth groups or other settings using two online resources developed by Zammer Ltd/TBC Digital. The project intends to make a difference within the education system in the UK, Ireland, Greece and Romania or local regions within them through:  better trained teachers and support staff to address bullying in all its forms  better trained staff in community environments to support young people and their parents, carers, guardians and wider family and friends networks to address bullying  greater confidence in using drama techniques at school in and outside of the classroom to create safe places to discuss bullying and other contentious issues  more understanding that the “classroom” can be different to the traditional concept of a classroom located within a physical building of a school and can encompass a theatre environment to offer informal learning opportunities  offering greater flexibility for teachers to use a more diverse range of learning styles and content by using drama in education techniques and apps developed for mobile technologies  improving the content of anti-bullying programmes on offer in schools at all levels within the compulsory education sector by adopting a whole school approach to cascading learning across the whole school curriculum  improved knowledge of the frequency of cyber bullying taking place  reducing the disparity in knowledge, skills and understanding between countries in the partnership in regard to bullying and its impact EU BULLY gives a voice to those affected by bullying who may otherwise have no space to do so; to share their experiences and explore ways of overcoming bullying behaviour. This manual has been developed as a guide for teachers to utilise the EU BULLY Quiz and research survey in their lessons as resources to support their anti-bullying approach. EU BULLY offers a blended approach - creating innovation in the virtual world alongside transfer and roll out of best practice in the use of drama in the physical world. Many anti-bullying initiatives are built upon the core philosophy of the Whole School Approach: on the assumption that bullying is a systemic problem, and, by implication, an intervention must be directed at the entire school not just at individual bullies and victims (Smith, Schneider, Smith, & Ananiadou, 2004, p. 548). This anti-bullying quiz, accessed online, is an adaptable resource for application across the school and youth groups. The 24 hour unrestricted access to content enables the quiz to also be picked up by young people on their own accord, to test their knowledge and reconsider their attitudes towards bullying, and roles of victims, bystanders and bullies. This quiz is complemented by a research survey app also accessible online and can be downloaded as an app on to iOS and Android devices. This research tool enables young people affected by bullying to speak up about their experiences in the safety of anonymity. The number of bullying incidents online are then reported online through a database, published on the EU BULLY site, giving real time data on how widespread bullying is across Europe. View this data at WWW.EUBULLY.EU 3 The abuse of the internet as a modern tool for bullying has tormented millions of victims day and night. The EU BULLY apps challenges this misuse of the internet by enabling it to become a force to tackle bullying through changing attitudes and reporting the real scope and nature. This guide has been developed by EU BULLY partnership to support teachers, parents or any professionals responsible for the pastoral care of young people. What is the EU BULLY Quiz app? Zammer is a learning platform for people of all ages to learn virtually about bullying through the EU BULLY content. This platform extends across the web and on mobile allowing learners access whenever and however suits them. The EU BULLY quiz tests understanding about what types of bullying take place, challenges attitudes to bullying scenarios and how to stay safe online. Users can be self-directed, peer-directed (via competitive challenges) or teacher-directed. A learner can play against other learners independent of the platform either user may be on. This means that teachers and students have a high degree of flexibility in terms of utilising the game in class or outside school. Content The quiz consists of 10 topics within bullying, drawn up by the EU BULLY partners in the UK, Ireland, Greece and Romania: • What is bullying? • The difference between teasing and taunting • What consequences affect those being bullied? • Why do people bully? • Can a victim become a bully ? Can a bully become a victim ? • What is different about a bully , a victim a bystander? • What help does a bully and a victim need? • cyberbullying - what is happening, staying safe online • How can bystanders help? • Trusting others – Who can you trust? The questions are multiple choice, with one correct answer that the user must identify. Given the often subjective nature of what is a right or wrong action to take, the partnership has considered, reviewed and reflected on these questions to ensure that the answers are clear and understandable to a young person completing the quiz. The content is appropriate for 11 years and over, although 4 the EU BULLY team will be reviewing the content and adapting to suit younger years. The questions are annexed to this guide for review. How do Teachers make use of the EU BULLY Quiz app? Teachers can use the EU BULLY quiz app in a number of ways within their lesson planning. The quiz works well as either an introduction or consolidation activity at the end of a session or workshop discussion on the topic of bullying. A teacher can assess their groups’ current understanding and engagement in the topics within bullying by tracking the scores attained by each individual. Where students are not scoring well in a certain topics, such as staying safe online, a teacher can direct the theme of their anti-bullying lesson or workshop to address this area. Equally, the game can be used simply as a supportive resource to break up face-to-face delivery, or can be set as a task to complete at home following the workshop to support reflection on the issues raised during the workshop.
