“…However, the findings of this study are consistent with those reported in other countries in terms of providing evidence of a high usage frequency of social networks regarding the realization of cyberbullying (Grace & Skonic, 2013;Wheeler, 2011).…”

The aim of this study is to determine the differences between types and technological means by which Mexican high school students perform cyberbullying. The effects to perform the role of aggressor and victim in the traditional bullying were also established in the intensity of the reports of cyberbullying. It was used a random cluster sampling with 278 students selected from four high schools, to which they were given two instruments designed expressly for measuring the frequency of types of cyberbullying and the use of technological means for its realization, as well as the frequency of bullying respectively. Results showed that denigration, harassment and exclusion were reported significantly more strongly than the other types of cyberbullying, and that the most frequently used technological medium were social networks. It was also found that performing the role of aggressor (R 2 =.44) or victim (R 2 =.37) explained a significant portion of the variance of cyberbullying reports. It was concluded that cyberbullying is a phenomenon that can take various forms and it is related in a complex way with traditional bullying.

“…Often there are attempts to treat what might be considered as being personal or sensitive as something relatively fixed [1] [3], and there are a number of taxonomies and ontologies to be found in this regard [65]. But there are others who seek to challenge this view, arguing that potential sensitivity is often not considered at all [28] [50] or is situationally-bound [46][54] [69].…”

The focus of this paper is upon how people handle the sharing of personal data as an interactional concern. A number of ethnographic studies of domestic environments are drawn upon in order to articulate a range of circumstances under which data may be shared. In particular a distinction is made between the in situ sharing of data with others around you and the sharing of data with remote parties online. A distinction is also drawn between circumstances of purposefully sharing data in some way and circumstances where the sharing of data is incidental or even unwitting. On the basis of these studies a number of the organisational features of how people seek to manage the ways in which their data is shared are teased out. The paper then reflects upon how data sharing practices have evolved to handle the increasing presence of digital systems in people's environments and how these relate to the ways in which people traditionally orient to the sharing of information. In conclusion a number of ways are pointed out in which the sharing of data remains problematic and there is a discussion of how systems may need to adapt to better support people's data sharing practices in the future.

“…One, in particular, was concerned that Facebook can "…encourage some of the bitchiness which you do find, certainly in the first year, when they're all busy jockeying for position" and had previous experience of Facebook "damaging people…" (Int4). These are valid concerns, as Kwan and Skoric (2013) highlight, with the increasing use of social networking, in some cases, leading to cyberbullying. Although generally considered to be a problem among school-age children, Wanda Cassidy, interviewed in Canada's The Chronicle Journal, found that it is also happening among undergraduate students (Luk, 2014).…”

Supporting students in the transition to Higher Education is crucial to improving retention. Set in a post-1992 university, admitting a high proportion of students from a widening participation background, this paper analyses first year undergraduate students' experience of their transition and, in particular, the initiatives implemented to support them. Through questionnaires and focus groups with students and interviews with course leaders, the study identifies the importance of pre-entry and first year engagement in helping students make proactive decisions, develop realistic expectations and integrate both socially and academically. A number of initiatives were evaluated and these were largely positive with the majority successfully managing the transition. However, student transition and retention is multi-faceted and this paper demonstrates the challenges post-1992 universities face in supporting a diverse student body. Nevertheless, areas of good practice were identified, including opportunities for social integration during induction and the use of course social network sites.
