تصورات معلمي المدارس فوق الابتدائية لظاهرة التنمر الشبكي و طرق التعامل معها في المدارس العربية في إسرائيل

Abstract EN

The study aims to shed light on violence and methods of dealing with it to help formulating policies and planning programs in the perspective of junior- high school teachers.

The study sample includes 150 teachers from junior- high schools in five Arab towns in the country center chosen by the snowball method.

An Arabic version of the "questionnaire on bullying in teachers’ perspective" is used in the study (Li, 2006).

It’s also translated into Hebrew by the researchers (Haimen, Alunik, Chimch and Adan, 2004).

The findings demonstrate that the phenomenon is widespread of among students in the junior- high schools besides the lack of teachers’ awareness of its significance.

The perceptions of the teachers and their abilities to deal with the phenomenon are not based on effective and correct knowledge and instructions, thus putting the blame and burden on the school and the education system to tackle the phenomenon.

Moreover, they show that gender does not constitute a factor in manifesting differences in violence and its treatment.
