the survey results

Hello, everyone! I guess people in my IE seminar class have a nice summer vacation.

I made a questionnaire through Survey Monkey, the very useful website, to get much information for our final presentation.

32 people cooperated with my survey. Most of them were students in high schools and universities. Also most people think that the most probable cause of bullying is the Internet. I think their answers are due to the spread of the Internet all over the world and that people can easily use it and do bully others on it.

Some people warned bully, others told it to teacher. However, most people who saw the bullying in the past of their school life ignored it. Of course, that's too bad, but I think they were fearful to get bullied by telling it to teacher, so they couldn't do anything.

I was glad to see an answer because some people think that if they see bully now, they tell it their teacher or senior. It' clear that most people think twice about the most serious problem not only in Japan, but in the world.

Four out of five people answered that they have never been bullied in their life, but there were a few people who had got bullied. Most of them were left out of the group, and spoken ill of by friends.
Also two out of five people had experience of bullying others mainly by leaving a friend out of the group and speaking ill of them. These two results show how most people bully others.

Most people think that teachers and friends are responsible for helping and save bullied children because teachers have a duty to look around in their classroom and have to notice bullying, and friends can really understand what bullied people feel and it seems easy for them to talk with the friends of same age.

Next question was "which do you think the number of bullying problems increase or decrease?" Most of them think that the number of bullying will increase because of the spread of the Internet, and no specific solutions.

Most people think that how teachers and even parents educate children not only in schools, but in their house are key factors of stopping bullying, but there were some people who thought we cannot stop bullying...
