The activity
• As a class, we will create a 10 question survey relating to cyberbullying. Individually, will then answer these questions on a scale from 1-5 (one- never occurs, 5- happens daily).
• In groups of four, we will then compile the class results, average them by both class as well as gender, and graph our data.
• We will then analyze the data and discuss possible solutions and prevention methods.
