Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to examine the impact of Facebook on the access of Vietnamese students to the issue of school violence and cyberbullying, including both the positive and negative effects of the popular platform. Not only has the popularity of Facebook changed the way the majority of Vietnamese students interact, exchange and access information, but it also has had multidimensional impacts on their perception and engagement with the issue of bullying at school. The research also suggests strategies to mitigate the negative impacts and leverage the benefits of Facebook in addressing the issue of school violence. The findings underscore the importance of raising awareness among Vietnamese students about the influence of Facebook and fostering an online environment that promotes safety and non-violence. By utilizing the potential of Facebook as an educational tool and a platform for support and knowledge-sharing, proactive steps can be taken to combat school violence effectively.
