What are some things that have been tried to stop cyberbullying? Did they work?

Brainstorm Keywords

Try to think of more than one way to search for articles about cyberbullying

Try to think of synonyms (words that mean the same thing)

Write keywords on your Research Process handout and share a few with the class

School pays for access – has info you can’t get free on the web

Edited/fact checked, so often more reliable than websites

Also check your public library – you’ll need your card and PIN.
