WORKSHEET 3: SOCIAL MEDIA ROLESIn the following examples, indicate who is exhibiting bullying behaviour. Who is a ‘bystander’? Who is responding appropriately? For those who are communicating inappropriately, how could they have contributed differently? Re-write those comments that could make a more positive contribution.

Example 1 – Social Networking Party

Figure 1 - This image shows an exchange on a social networking site. The original post refers to a party, some comments suggest that not everyone should be invited, like the 'wannabes' and there is a request that photos of the party not be 'tagged' online.

Example 2 – Social Networking Dress

Figure 2 - This image shows comments from a social networking site regarding a post about a dress which someone is considering wearing to a formal event. Some comments are supportive, while others are insulting.

Example 3 – Video Site Fight

Figure 3 - This image shows an online video site and comments concerning a video titled "Ethan v Jackson at Middle Park West". The image of the video shows two boys who appear to be having a physical confrontation. Some comments are inflammatory, while some suggest that the video should be removed, and that reputations may be damaged.
