Special topics include how to involve teachers, parents, and peers in making schools safer; ways to address the root causes of bullying and victimization; the growing problem of online or cyberbullying; and approaches to evaluating intervention effectiveness. In a convenient large-size format, the book features helpful reproducibles, concrete examples, and questions for reflection and discussion.
