Final Evaluation

For my project in IT, I made a help column about bullying with the help of my peer Khalifa. I wanted to make this project because the sites that are most commonly seen on the internet give and adult's perspective, I think the bullied kids needed to have something from their own perspective. Since I had personal experience from bullying, I should give the kids what they should do, not what they are told to do normally. I think the end product was a bit small, but it's quantity did not bother me, because I believe it's effective and the fact that it will help kids better than some of the other projects. I personally did not like my use of time, I knew I could finish it in one lesson, but I worked very slowly and sometimes got carried away. I think my partner Khalifa gave good ideas but only did a minimum amount of work, as he did not type the column.  

I think I worked well this project. Though I worked slowly sometimes, when I got down to work I really concentrated and did a good job.

I think things I did were my ideas on what we should write in the column, I also I think that the content I wrote in the column were good and had a kid's perspective.  

I think I could improve by working faster, and concentrating fully on the work.

I think I got good feedback from the teacher, as he always kept on saying that I had an excellent idea, and that it would really help kids.

I think that the column would effect every kid as they could see what it feels like being bullied.

Peer Evaluation

I think our class is doing a great job either making games, or other great things.

i think our blog (ab4kidz.blogspot.blogspot.com) will be really good!

More Information

Currently I've looked through some forums and bullying websites and what I've noticed is that the information they is give is the same, and that it isn't a kid's perspective, 

For example; A website states that standing up for yourself will help stop the bullying, but from my own experience it doesn't help.

This sort of justification will be evident in my help column as I will give a kid's perspective. Something that I hope will help kids better than what the normal sites say.

Design Specification and Plan

My design for my help column would probably be A separate page on the class's anti-bullying site. It will probably colored in dark colors and I'm planning to put some pictures with the column itself once it's done. Id also like to put other links to other help sites for people who get bullied.

I'd like to plan it out in a way where a person would read through the column and ask question through a response/forum system. And through that system I would answer their questions, if they had any.

Investigation Bullying Help Column

For my contribution to the school bullying site, I will write a advice column about bullying and handling it, from a personal view for middle school students.

 

For this I had to investigate through forums and personal blogs, to see how people felt about bullying and how they handled it. 

Introduction post

To introduce our help column, we started a self guide on how the reader is bullied.
