Cyberbullying has many faces
Cyberbullying affects many children and young people in many different forms. The matching game "Cyberbullying has many faces" offers a playful introduction to this topic. By interacting with the various elements of the game, children and young people can not only learn about the different forms of cyberbullying, but also enter into an open dialogue about it.
When creating the game, we were primarily guided by the illustrations and information provided by the Baden-Württemberg State Media Centre.

Structure and procedure
The game consists of face cards representing different types of cyberbullying. Each face has the name of a specific form. Orange-coloured cards contain detailed descriptions of the forms of cyberbullying. The players now try to match the faces to an orange-coloured description card. The aim is to find the right description for each face. The final step is to match the blue cards with concrete practical examples of the respective form. Players can also come up with their own examples. There are colour dots on the back of each part to check for errors: parts of the same colour belong together. This not only funds correct matching, but also allows for easy self-monitoring.
"Cyberbullying has many faces" is part of our online stress theme box, but can also be borrowed separately.
