@21stprincipal @mthornton78 tinyurl.com/6trpw32 there's a off online of boyd's latest book chapter


irasocol @21stprincipal danah has pursued this in what I see as really valuable ways


irasocol @21stprincipal as I've written, most of the bullying I see in schools was learned in schools, from adults

 as that little video asks, who created the choir? Who gave them status?

 who holds pep rallies for one activity but not others? Who discourages and labels difference? Who ranks kids more?
 In reply to 21stprincipal

 not a statistical thing. Who teaches dividing kids by age, certain skills, more than schools? Who labels kids more?

 if you drill down into that study, you'll see that most cyberbullying is continuation of school bullying 
 In reply to 21stprincipal

 bullying is learned behavior. Schools, parents, societal leaders all teach it 
 In reply to 21stprincipal
