School Climate 2.0 Preventing Cyberbullying and Sexting One Classroom at a Time
— Book Study via Online Moodle —


“Advances in technology have revolutionized the way teens communicate, learn and interact. Blaming technology is easy.
Addressing the socio-cultural dynamics that shape young people’s lives is hard. Yet, to address problems
like sexting and cyberbullying is exactly what we as educators need to do” (Book Review).

In this book study, we will discuss the relationship between technologically mediated issues and school climate, review and apply strategies suggested in the book that have been proven to be both effective and appropriate.
