As far as the video Marlon and I put together, I believe it does have value because cyber bullying and simply just bullying has been a growing classroom issue over the recent past few years. This can be used to teach the students about the effects of bullying and how seriously dangerous it can be for some students where it may cause them harm to themselves, harm to others, or in some serious cases, commit suicide. This video could be incorporated possibly in a phys. ed. class, or even in the main classroom during a safety week theme. Challenges to this topic and video, would be to reach the bullies, not just the bullied students. While discussing this issue, the teacher wants to really try to be sure the students who are being the bullies understand the damage they do on those they bully and how, in the worst case scenario, could cost a family a member’s life. As for the outcomes, one would hope that it reaches all students, that those who are being bullied are not afraid to tell and instead of continuing to let it happen, will take a stand and tell an adult right away. Another hopeful outcome, as mentioned before, is for the bully to realize the effect he/she is really having on their victim and the possibilities and severity of what the outcomes could be like, hopefully stopping them from continuing to be a bully. For the project, some of the few challenges we had, even after having our storyboard mapped out, was actually getting the ideas to come together and be conducted to actually get the video done. Once we had everything figured out and got the video recording done, the transition of the video and progression with the music, etc. flowed well and the video turned out well and we were pleased with how it all ended.
