Gwangju Seobu Youth Center Produces and Distributes School Violence Prevention Video for Teachers

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Gwan-woo] The Gwangju Western Office of Education announced on the 7th that it has produced two teacher-oriented school violence prevention education videos, "Is There School Violence in Our Class?" and "These Mistakes! These Misunderstandings, School Violence Q&A," and uploaded them on YouTube for use in school violence prevention activities at individual schools.

"Is There School Violence in Our Class?" is a non-face-to-face school violence prevention education video material aimed at teachers.

It selected five common mistakes that homeroom teachers may make during the school violence case handling process and was created to help them approach the cases from an educational perspective.

"These Mistakes! These Misunderstandings, School Violence Q&A" is composed of content that helps homeroom teachers understand the initial stages of school violence occurrence, including phone communication with parents of both victims and perpetrators, consultation with the teacher responsible for school violence, operation of the dedicated school violence organization, and the school violence deliberation committee of the Office of Education.

Last year, the Western Office of Education also produced and distributed two videos for elementary students, one video for middle school students, and one video for parents to be used in school violence prevention at individual schools.

In particular, the video for middle and high school students, "Did You Know? This Is Also Cyber Violence!" has become a hot topic, recording over 120,000 views within five months of distribution.

This video raises issues and provides guidance on responses to cyber (sexual) violence and account hijacking through SNS, which have recently frequently occurred in middle and high schools, and is highly valued for its educational use.

The Western Office of Education plans to produce and distribute a video on "School Violence Relationship Recovery," applicable throughout the entire school violence process.

Additionally, to move beyond the limitations of retributive life education and build a peaceful community through genuine understanding and apology toward others, they plan to produce a "School Violence Relationship Recovery" video related to the operation of "Restorative Life Education."

Park Joo-jung, Superintendent of the Western Office of Education, said, "Regardless of the severity of the case, it is important to protect the victim students and guide the perpetrator students," adding, "It is time for all members of society to devote their efforts to building a continuous peaceful school community beyond the fleeting interest in school violence whenever a major issue arises."
