Media & Bullying is an educational DVD-ROM that explores the topic of youth-related bullying through movie clips, news articles, website information and magazine ads. Learners will expand their understanding of media literacy by examining fantasy and reality, target audiences, untold stories and other deconstruction questions. The presentation format on the DVD-ROM allows instructors to discuss various aspects of real-life bullying using questions and answers related to the media examples.

While it can be used for individual study, Media & Bullying has been designed to be used in classrooms, community groups, and other group settings to:

• Understand media literacy in the context of bullying.
• Gain more awareness about bullying and its consequences.
• Explore portrayals of bullying in the media.
• Make positive choices with regard to attitudes, actions and
  behaviors.

This DVD-ROM contains 17 selected media examples from films, TV shows, magazine ads and the Internet, accessed through a menu system. Optional SDH subtitles can be played with all audio and video clips.

The disc also includes a printable presentation guide you can use to lead a conversation about the media examples on the disc.  The presentation guide is available in Standard and Large Print versions.

This DVD-ROM can be used in any DVD player or in a DVD-ROM drive in a computer.
