Statistics show that one in five students report being bullied. Students who are victims of bullying are more likely to develop mental health disorders and perform poorly in school, whereas students who engage in bullying are at risk of developing long-term behavioral and emotional problems.
It goes without saying, but if there’s any kind of bullying going on in the classroom, no one’s actually winning. So it’s important to stop it - especially before it starts.
That’s where Hacking School Culture comes in. Written by veteran teacher Angela Stockman and certified psychologist Ellen Feig Gray, the book provides you with a human-centric approach to bullying prevention. The book combines positive psychology, real-world experience, and evidence-based research to delineate easy-to-apply strategies that will help you connect more with your students, become a role model, and cultivate a compassionate environment in your classroom.
And don’t worry: you won’t have to think of the conversation-starters on your own. Citing many cases of educators and school systems that were successful in such endeavors, Hacking School Culture offers you the tools to broach sensitive topics with your students.
The authors note that strengths-based teaching and learning are important for improving school culture. They also emphasize that you should encourage activism and respectful communication while empowering students to resolve conflict peacefully. By creating a learning environment with mutual understanding as the basis, students will be able to better learn about empathy and tolerance.
