Collaborative work in the classroom, bullying and cyberbullying: Study with adolescents
Trabajo colaborativo en el aula, bullying y cyberbullying: Estudio con adolescentes
Main Article Content
Bullying has become a common practice in the adolescent population, and especially through cyberbullying. These practices generate serious problems in this collective, especially in cognitive, social and emotional dimensions, being essential to act preventively. A descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in a sample of 227 adolescents from the city of Melilla (Spain), which sought to analyze the existing relationships between bullying, cyberbullying and cooperative work practices. The cyberbullying test (Garaigordobil, 2013) and a teamwork questionnaire using validation of experts are used as main instruments. The results reveal that cooperative work is higher in girls, decreasing it as age increases. Likewise, group work was inversely related to situations of harassment. It was also observed that the older age suffered more victimization linked to cyberbullying and increased the situations in which one is an aggressor. It concludes how cooperative work in the classroom can act preventively in situations of bullying by helping to build better relationships between peers and group identity.
