Introduction and Literature Review so far


Introduction
            Bullying. Why is this topic so important? We hear this term a lot in schools, communities, colleges and society.  This term has become very important since the Rutgers incident about two years ago. Now in the state of New Jersey teachers have to be trained in bullying, (harassment, intimidation, and bullying HIB) and cyber bullying. Bullying can be defined as, “a blustering, quarrelsome, overbearing person who habitually badgers and intimidates smaller or weaker people.” (Dictionary.com)Teachers and adults need to know the signs of when a child is being bullied or picked on. This has become very prominent in the schools and the teachers who witness this have to take action to stop it.
            Bullying can shape a child’s life for the good and the bad. Either a child learns to overcome it or deal with it or a child will let the bullying bother them through adulthood. We as a society have seen/ read about bullying affecting children. There have been many studies and articles done about childhood bullying. But have we ever read / discovered how adults who were bullied as children are doing today/ dealing with it or overcame bullying? That is why this study needs to be done! We as a society need to explore this situation to better familiar ourselves with adults who have been bullied and how they are doing today.
            In a study done by Timo Terasahjo and Christine Salmivalli, they explore children being bullied today and seeing how they are coping with being bullied today. I will challenge the way of how we should view adults who have been bullied and focus more of their story instead of just reading another article of how children are dealing with this.
            I recently sat down with a young adult who shared her thoughts and views about how she was bullied as a child. I have gotten her feedback about how she dealt with this as a child and how she learned to overcome this part in her life now as an adult. The three codes that will be explored are language, emotional connection and sentence structure.
Literature Review
                   This literature review is called “She is not actually bullied. The discourse of harassment in student groups.” By Timo Terasahjo and Christine Salmivalli. These two people interviewed and observed students in elementary school. They got the students input about how they feel about being bullied. This study is a good idea to read if you only focus on children. I am more focused about how adults are dealing with bullying. Terasahjo and Salmivaii say, “anti-bullying attitudes were stronger than pro-bullying attitudes.” This might be true, but then how come we as a society always hear of a bullying case every day. We only hear the bad and never the good. I want to know more the positive outcomes of how adults dealt and overcame bullying. In the study the children identified bullying as, “…described indirect (e.g. spreading nasty rumors and social isolation) as well as direct (hitting, name calling) aggressive behavior.”  This is all typical behavior of elementary students. Now the big question will be how those students are going to handle these situations. They need to be able to learn from these situations in order to grow and become strong adults. If the students let the other students bother them then the outcomes might be severe if they never learn to overcome being bullied.
“Bullying as justified, including the interpretative repertoires of “odd student” and “deserving” which construct the victim as a negatively deviant student who also deserves to be treated with hostility, are described.”  
These are all things that need to be addressed as a young child. Children need to learn how to identify this behavior as negative and report this to an adult or a teacher. This type of behavior needs to stop in order for the children to grow up in a positive way.

K:  did you
KA:  it was probly
K:  sorry go ahead
KA:  did I tell my parents ….i don’t think I told my parents I was… young and I …I don’t know I just… it probly stopped at some point because I …. Like fourth grade was generally ….like okay for me it wasn’t too bad so it proboly stoped at one point and maybe I did tell my parents about that.. And that’s why it stopped but …. I don’t know it was so long ago …. That I can’t remember like … how it was handled

KA:  yeah yeah  hahaha 
K:  hahaha
KA:   did I ever come to you guys about it probably not

KA:  yeah yeah she was in my 4th grade class I had her with 4th grade teacher  
K:  okay….. That’s cool now were you …how did you overcome being in like that situation …like how did you overcome it
KA:  um I don’t know I guess I didn’t let it bring me down … I was crying in class but that was only probly only lasted a day or 2 I don’t know … I know they were rude to me but after that grade I never really had to see them because they weren’t in my classes any more
K:  ohhh okay so
KA:  then
K:  so you switched 4th and 5th
KA:  yeah because um I had 4th grade teacher and then …. Once you go to fifth grade you have somebody else and they weren’t  in that class with me … I had 5th grade teacher  and they were in different classes so after that it did not really happen as it did not happen at all then um in middle school we all went our separate ways and
K:  yeah like
KA:  after that it was never really an issue they were the only people who were just mean to me back then
K:  yeah you are not confined to that one classroom anymore you are in multiple classrooms to … if you don’t really like someone they …. Okay go see ya I am going somewhere else
KA:  yeah
K:  that type of deal
KA:  yeah thankfully everybody else was nice
K:  yeah   
KA:  they were the only ones
K:  oh my goodness can you remember you’re like like your science teacher must have said something
KA:  he probably did  that I mean … in a classroom with only 20 something students you’re bound to see everything that is happening he probably knew what  was happening… he probably intercepted it he had to have seen that I was breaking down in class and crying cause of what they were saying to me
K:  yeah
KA:  which probably made them stop
K:  yeah it’s good
KA:  for a little
K:  yeah for a little while yeah because they would see an adult figure and like a teacher saying hey like
KA:  you need to cut this out
K:  yeah okay like you’re really means business and all that
KA:  haha
K:  yeah you need to stop that

Blog #19 List of Refrences

Here is the reference that I will be using for my literature review in my research project. "She Is Not Actually Bullied." The Discourse of Harassment in Student Groups. The works cited reference is:

  Terasahjo, Timo. ""She Is Not Actually Bullied." The Discourse of Harassment in Student Groups."Aggressive Behavior. 29. (2003): 134-154. Print.

           I will be using this source in my literature review by having another source about bullying and how important it impacts a young child's life. I will also be using this source for stats to back up the information that I already know from my previous knowledge.

Side note: I have conducted my interview and will be bringing in the signed consent form on Tuesday. This week I plan on transcribing the interview.
