5 Effective Steps to Solving the Bullying Epidemic—and the Tools to Get You There

The rapid advance of social media and mobile technology over the last several years has pushed the bullying and cyber-bullying problem to epidemic proportions. Compounding this real world problem that negatively affects the lives of students, parents, and teachers alike is the pressure faced by administrators to meet and exceed mandates required by both state and federal legislation. Join long-time K12 technology expert Paul Myer of PublicEngines for a presentation and interactive discussion about bullying and the new tools available to help you combat the epidemic.

Topics will include:

  • How to provide a tool that allows students and parents to report incidents of bullying and other hurtful and/or illegal behavior – like drugs, weapons, violence on campus, and suicidal thoughts.
  • How to drive user adoption through promotion and education.
