This was a very interesting class and some of the topics overlapped with mental health and transgender youth issues. The videos done by students were really informative and to the point.

I enjoyed the whole class. I see bullying all the time, and it is a horrible thing. I try to do my best to control the situation at least in my class. I never thought about the "Upstander" I thought that was a great thing to teach my classes the difference between upstander and bystander. I am going to order that poster I liked for the "Upstander" I am really excited for next year because we do not have such a formalized reading program that we have had in the past. I can now bring in a lot of my own curriculum that I have and we can read articles about bullying and how they can protect themselves.
This was an excellent course. There was a lot of good information given that I will keep up with. Bullying is a big problem, and it just seems to get bigger. Now I have some tools to work with. Thank You!
