1Note that information on cyberbullying and bullying that occurs outside of school is not included in this I-Guide, because the research on programs and practices to address these forms of bullying is still developing. In addition, this I-Guide focuses on programs (classroom-based or school-wide) that prevent or intervene with bullying, but it does not address programs that help individuals with the consequences of bullying, such as therapeutic approaches. Similarly, this I-Guide does not focus on programs aimed at affecting a school’s climate, which can impact bullying indirectly; instead, the research used to develop this I-Guide focused on the implementation of programs that target and impact bullying directly. |
