Technology use has provided adolescence with a new means to harass peers. This harassment, known as cyberbullying, can have devastating effects on the individuals involved. For this reason, education stakeholders need to find a solution to this problem. This field project covers the issue of cyberbullying. The researcher looks at the behaviors associated with cyberbullying, the effects of this misconduct and how the Positive Behavior Intervention and Support System can be used to transform this behavior taking place in urban classrooms.
