Promising directions for improving the system of countering bullying and cyberbullying in educational organizations

Abstract

In modern conditions, the importance of working to combat bullying and cyberbullying is gradually increasing in connection with the humanization of the educational process and drawing attention to the problems of suicide among children and youth, the problems of shooting and Columbine, which are often associated with bullying in educational institutions. Taking into account its practical relevance, the stated topic attracts considerable attention from theoretical researchers. Thus, the multidisciplinary nature of the topic is clearly reflected in the fact that researchers from the field of pedagogy, psychology, various branches of law, management, sociology and many other fields are addressing the issues of improving the system of combating bullying and cyberbullying. Such a broad study of problems does not always allow for the development of solutions that can minimize the risks associated with bullying and cyberbullying in educational organizations. The author makes an attempt to reflect on the experience and proposals described by domestic researchers and highlight the most promising measures to improve the system of combating bullying and cyberbullying. It is proposed to improve the system of pedagogical work with students by developing in them the communication skills necessary to prevent bullying and cyberbullying. The need to provide psychological support to subjects of the educational process of chatbots is proven to simplify the interaction of representatives of educational organizations and other organizations whose goal is to minimize the risks associated with bullying and cyberbullying.
