Editorial Reviews

Review

"School leaders need information about cyberbullying and resources on how to protect the children in their care. This book provides timely research, best practices, and personal voices from students that will go a long way toward improving student safety." (Gail Connelly, Executive Director, National Association of Elementary School Principals )

"Hinduja and Patchin are two of the most respected researchers on cyberbullying, and their in-depth research lays the foundation for this book. This book contains the best practices that principals can implement at their schools to prevent and respond to acts of cyberbullying." (Gerald N. Tirozzi, Executive Director, National Association of Secondary School Principals )

"Cyberbullying can have the same debilitating effects on a young person as face-to-face bullying: depression, a drop in school grades, loss of self-esteem, suicide, and other violent acts. We simply must do all we can to stop this devastating problem. This book is an excellent resource that clearly presents the relevant issues and provides many practical strategies to help readers address cyberbullying." (Alfonso E. Lenhardt, President and CEO, National Crime Prevention Council )

"An important contribution to the burgeoning literature on cyberbullying and a valuable tool for concerned adults that will enhance the safety and well-being of young people as they navigate their increasingly technological worlds. Backed by years of research and enhanced by the authors' perspectives from the worlds of criminology, juvenile justice, and computer science, this book offers educators, families, and youth service providers an array of useful information, ranging from the social and legal context to concrete strategies for responding to cyberbullying." (Scott Hirschfeld, Director of Curriculum, Anti-Defamation League )

"Cyberbullying is a significant concern for teens and tweens in the 21st century. This timely and informative book brings adults up to speed on how kids are using technology to harm their peers." (Tina Meier, Cyberbullying Activist, Founder, The Megan Meier Foundation )

"Sameer Hinduja and Justin Patchin get it! There are only a few researchers and others who are focusing on this growing problem, and these two are pioneers in the field. While there is a lot of press about Internet safety issues such as predators and pedophiles, cyberbullying-using 21st-century technologies as tools of peer abuse-tends to get lost in the shuffle. As professors of criminal justice, they get the fact that cyberbullying is not fundamentally a technology problem. Rather, it is a social and educational problem involving youth and their use of a variety of new technologies. The first responders should be parents and educators. From the table of contents and the preface, through each chapter, and throughout the wealth of immediately usable tools, this book is both an eye-opener and a hands-on text for classroom and support program educators and parents. It also puts things into practical perspective for professionals in law enforcement and the technology industry. It will take all of us to keep our young people safe in this new technological world. This is a much-needed resource." (Mike Donlin, Senior Program Consultant )

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, April 15, 2009
This review is from: Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard: Preventing and Responding to Cyberbullying (Paperback)
I am a counselor in a middle school and found this book to be a powerful read. It is very well organized and indexed. Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard is eye-opening to the huge concern of Cyberbullying - from the basics to prevention, as well as important legal issues. This would be an awesome read for staff development, or any educator invested in protecting our students. The last section of the book has awesome resources that include activities not only for students, but also for staff development.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard is a MUST Read!, May 23, 2011

This review is from: Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard: Preventing and Responding to Cyberbullying (Paperback)
Sameer Hinduja and Justin W. Patchin's book highlights the growing and pervasive problem of cyberbullying with rich detail and thorough research. Every educator and parent should read this book to understand how technology can be used as a vehicle to bully. I knew cyberbullying was a global problem; however, I didn't know the myriad of ways that adolescents can cyberbully and its array of negative short and long-term effects on victims. I realized that adolescents are really in their own "private worlds" with technology, and adults need to be more aware, proactive, and computer savvy to help ameliorate this frightening issue. An excellent, concise, and compelling book with real stories and helpful strategies to combat this problem. Superb!!

This review is from: Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard: Preventing and Responding to Cyberbullying (Paperback)
As an educator, at the middle school level, I found this book to be extremely helpful.It is easy to read and well indexed. This book puts all the information about the dangers on the internet in one place. The real life examples help put it all into perspective for me. I was amazed by the amount of information the book contained. It was truly an education. From what to look for to prevention and the legal issues involved this book has become an asset at my school.
