| Summary: | This study investigated praeticum teachers’ perception on bullying, how serious
bullying is, who are the bullies and being bullied, why is someone being bullied
and how bullying can be prevented. Questionnaires were distributed among 30
practicum teachers who had gone through their praeticum in the previous
semester. Data was tabulated using frequencies and descriptive analyses. It was
found that bullying is perceived to be a serious matter in Malaysian secondary
schools. Based on the data, bullying can happen in various acts such as social
isolation, teased, degraded, giving rude gestures and et cetera. The data also
showed bullying can happen anywhere in the school, especially in the classroom
and gym. This study proves that the bullies are mostly students who are very close
to the victims, namely their own classmates. Various reasons such as jealousy,
craving for power and seeking attention are some factors that triggers bullying
among students. Teachers, school personnel, parents and the students themselves
play an important role of preventing bullying in school. |
