Ohori,+Chise,+School+Bullying

== I am choosing “school bullying” for my wiki topic. This is one of the big issues at school in Japan and unfortunately it’s getting more serious these days. I chose to do it because I would like to know what causes it, and how to prevent, and also the difference between in Japan and the U.S. == 5 things I learned 

 1. Not only the bullies but also the victims have their problem which causes bullying.  2. Bullying causes very serious problem such as school violence, delinquency, and suicide.  3. Surprising fact that the incident of bullying is actually lower than in the U.S.    4. In Japan, the effect of bullying, what is called hikikomori is big issue today.  5. 77% of the students have experienced being bullied in a recent school bullying statistics.

1) This power point tells what bullying is in general. It covers pretty much everything such as the definition of bullying, types of bullying, things what we can to protect, causes of bullying, effect of bullying, signs of being bullying, and so on. This slideshow contains a lot of pictures and easy to see. I gave this slideshow __5 out of 5 stars__, because it surely teaches people how harmful bullying is, and trying to protect and also prevent the bullying.

3) This website contains a lot of helpful information about current educational issues in Japan including bullying. This website is good because it provides some data with number, and also other terms related to bullying such as futoko child, which is called hikikomori in other words (will be explained later). I gave it __4 out of 5 stars__ because it is interesting.

4) I found this video from youtube, and I thought it is very interesting especially for those who don’t know about hikikomori in Japan. This video clearly explains what hikikomori is, and what makes them hikikomori. I give this video __4 out of 5 stars__, because it could focus on more solution other than one in the video.

5) This is a very useful website that shows the statistics data of bullying facts in the United States. You can see the circumstances in the U.S. and may think what society should do towards this issue. I gave it __4 out of 5 stars__, because the website can contain some solution to this issue as well so it would be much helpful.

6) This power point provides some data and information about cyberbullying which is one of the bullying kinds. This is good information since technology has evolved and almost everyone has cell phone and at least has internet connection. I gave this slideshow __3 out of 5 stars__ because it does not totally focus on cyberbullying but also other negative fact of internet/cell phone. But still this gives good statistics of cyberbullying.

This was on TV in 2007, and got big attention because the story focuses mainly on bullying which is recently serious societal issue in Japan. I gave this video __3 out of 5 stars__, because this shows dark side of high school life.
