, BULLYING 2
Bullying has become one of the biggest issues amongst the younger generation in recent
years. In order to gather all of the data that is required to show how bullying in schools and
online effects young children I will first have to get approval from the board on my research
topic. Once my topic has been approved, I will then need to brief possible participants and
parents since the research will be conducted on young children and get their written consent.
Since the study will be taking place in two different areas of Northern Virginia, I will first
randomly select 10 middle school students and 10 high school students from the Loudoun
County School District whose parents have given consent. Although parents are required to give
m
er as
consent, I will also allow the student to consent to participate in the study. I will then randomly
co
eH w
select another 10 middles school students and 10 high school students from the Alexandria City
o.
Public School System. Please keep in mind that these students will be selected from different
rs e
ou urc
middles schools and different high schools in each area to ensure that personal bias is limited,
and demographic environment is expanded. Once I have selected all of the students from each
o
aC s
demographic area I will conduct interviews over a two-week period with all 40 students. These
vi y re
interviews will consist of two different kinds of questions for each student to gather the
necessary information for my topic. The first set of questions will consist of personal questions
ed d
ar stu
of who they are and where they come from just to get some background information in the
student’s personal life and family. The second set of questions will consist of whether each
is
student has been involved, experienced, or witnessed any kind of bullying and if applicable, how
Th
they or others were bullied, whether online, on school premises, or by friends. Since children
sh
spend most of their time at school we want to see how they are influenced by bullying. “The
work atmosphere and social relations in classes both influence and are influenced by
the children.” (Holen, Waaktaar, Lervåg, & Ystgaard, 2013). I will also provide a survey to
each student on how bullying affects them.
