OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
School Bullying and the CATZ Cross Age Teaching Zone Anti-Bullying Intervention
The talk will initially provide an overview on school bullying, looking at traditional bullying and cyberbullying. I will then present a summary on some recent research we have conducted looking at traditional bullying victimisation, social anxiety, and disrupted classroom concentration. I will then present some research looking at cyberbullying in the school environment, especially how teachers manage it, and how young people perceive and respond to it. School bullying is a considerable problem among school students, and school-wide positive behaviour support interventions are regarded as helpful in addressing it. The talk will finally address a novel anti-bullying intervention – the CATZ Cross-age Teaching Zone. Our research indicates significant positive effects of CATZ and social validity ratings predicted a greater willingness to engage in it in the future. Alongside the extant data for its effectiveness, our findings support the wider use of the CATZ anti-bullying intervention in schools, and suggestions for how this might be brought about will be discussed.
