À propos de cet ebook

Nearly a third of students are directly involved in bullying by the time they graduate from high school. A range of strategies have been shown to improve peer interactions and reduce bullying behaviors. Yet many teachers struggle to detect bullying and to respond to it effectively. This book is a much- needed guide to evidence-based methods for prevention and intervention in K–12 classrooms.
