Ms Janine and Ms Siti speak on cyberbullying and how Nexus prevents its occurrence
Channel: Nexus International School Malaysia
Date: 2022-04-15

Our #NexusTeachers, Ms Janine and Ms Siti were invited by Taylor's Education Group to represent Nexus at an online forum titled, "Cyberbullying: Is it an overrated phenomenon?". Cyberbullying among children in different parts of the world has been well-documented over the past ten years. Despite the prevalence of cyberbullying, it is still unclear how schools strategically address this issue among students, particularly in Malaysia during the COVID-19 pandemic. During the forum, both teachers presented their views and insights on this growing social epidemic.

Both Ms Janine and Ms Siti expressed their views in an engaging and impressive manner that sought to understand the change in student relationships during the recent pandemic. Both teachers agreed that the heightened exposure to devices made cyberbullying easier as there was no separation between during and after school hours, given how blurred the lines were due to constant online classes.

They also shared best practices implemented by Nexus such as Nexus' structured educational ethos, which includes policies and procedures that are aimed at preventing any type of bullying at Nexus. Nexus also has a Digital Code of Conduct that every learner agrees to and signs so that they know what the requirements are to be a digital citizen.

We are so proud of Ms Janine and Ms Siti's feature on the forum's teacher panel. Hats off to both teachers for an insightful sharing session. 👏
