Monitoring and Mapping Student Victimization in Schools
Astor, Ron Avi; Benbenishty, Rami; Meyer, Heather Ann
Theory Into Practice, v43 n1 p39-49 Feb 2004
International data suggests that the most successful violence prevention programs are adapted to fit a specific school site and involve all of the constituents in a school setting. In contrast to many of the popular skills-based programs that are commonly implemented in schools across the United States, the authors explore the utility of combining monitoring and mapping techniques to prevent specific forms of school violence and aggression in specific spaces and times in school. Examples of the successful implementation of monitoring and mapping techniques in schools are provided.
