Your assignment is to read the article: http://www.stopbullying.gov/cyberbullying/what-is-it/ and find two other articles about cyberbullying to summarize into a trifold brochure on “Cyberbullying”.  Your trifold brochure will be created in Microsoft Publisher and feature the following requirements:

  • What kinds of long-term affects can occur to the bullies and victims as a result of cyberbullying?

• Not all the answers can be found in http://www.stopbullying.gov/cyberbullying/what-is-it/ so you will have to use other sources to find the information. Make sure they are legitimate sources.

  • 2 pages with alignment lines showing the 3 folds.

  • Text boxes that are linked to other text boxes to show text flowing from one section to another

  • Images
