Constructing a Safe Learning Environment

Using the NCU library, locate two recent articles (in the last five years) that discuss  bullying in the classroom. You may find it helpful to visit the Curriculum and Teaching LibGuide or review the library’s quick tutorial, Search Like an Expert (9:07), or the longer workshop, Searching 101 (47:25).
After reading your selected articles, reflect on the struggles of the new teachers you are working with and how they might deal with bullying. How are they creating a safe learning environment? Reviewing what research suggests might help the teachers deal with bullying effectively. You will use the two articles you selected to present ideas to the new teachers to help them create a safe learning environment and effectively address bullying.
In your presentation, be sure to:
Justify the importance of creating a safe learning environment (1 slide);
Provide a brief summary of the findings of each article (suggestion: 1 slide for each article);
Explain the implications of each article for the new teacher related to safe learning environments and bullying (suggestion: 2 slides – 1 slide for each article);
Suggest at least three specific ways the new teachers can create safe learning environments and address bullying, based on the implications of the two articles you reviewed (suggestion: 3 slides – 1 slide for each suggestion);
Offer at least one additional source for the teachers to explore on their own following the presentation (1 slide).
As you format your presentation, be sure to include:
Effective slide design that incorporates the best practices in NCU’s PowerPoint Tutorial, such as using graphics and short phrases in bulleted lists while saving the full details for the speaker notes on each slide.
Images and graphics that you created or that are copyright free, such as a Creative Commons license (you must still offer attribution even if the image is copyright free);
Title slide with your name, date, and assignment title (creativity in your title is appreciated but not required);
References slide that lists the full APA-formatted reference for all sources used
Length: 8-10 slides, not including the title and reference slides
References: A minimum of two scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including seminal articles, may be included.
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your paper should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.
