Educators Bullying Students By Angel Bentley

Do educators really bully students? A bullying teacher is defined as a teacher who uses their power to punish, manipulate or ridicule a student beyond the consider disciplinary procedures. Types of bullying: Sarcasm Name calling Humiliating students who perceive as having potential behavioral problems in the classroom

Primary Research: 30 surveys were done by students at OU: 6 people out of 30 reported that they were bullied by a teacher. 5 out of 6 bullied by teachers in high school. 4 out of 6 had some idea why they were being bullied. 2 told a parent; 2 stood up for themselves; 1 cried; and 1 did not care. The other 24 people were just bullied by other students.

Conclusion: I believe that the people who reported being bullied by a teacher in high school because high school is kids think it is cool to defiantly disobey teachers and other school officials. So, high school teachers have to use some type of forceful discipline to make their students listen.

Conclusion: No one reported of being bullied by a professor here at OU. OU professors want to help you succeed. Plus they can kick you out of their classroom if you disrespect them.

Secondary Research: In 2008, 50 children from an alternative education setting were surveyed, ages 11 to 18 years reported being bullied by a teacher. 86% had at least one incident were a teacher bullied them. 88% reported being bullied psychologically by a teacher. Twice as many students reported being bullied more by a teacher than a peer.

Discussion: I suggest colleges need to require Education majors to take a class in classroom communication. This way teachers can learn how to talk to students in an appropriate manner. I also suggest that teachers take an emotion management class to control their inner emotions.
