Before conducting the health promotion strategy, a pre-survey was conducted during 35 minute lesson to evaluate the current knowledge of the group (refer to Appendix, Figure 1). After evaluating the knowledge of the group from the pre-survey, it was evident that approximately over 62% and 68.75% of the students did not understand cyber bullying and bystander respectively. Therefore, a series of activities were developed into a lesson plan to address the lack of knowledge of the target group, in order to improve their personal skills (refer to Appendix, Figure 2). …show more content…

One of the main activities consisted of a short video clip which was aimed at developing the personal skill of the target group by evoking discussion and enhancing their knowledge about cyber bullying and negative bystander behaviour (refer to Appendix, Figure 4, Graph 2 and 4). The video allowed students to make connections between cyber bullying and negative bystander behaviour. According to National Teacher Training Institute (2013) using videos in the lesson enables students to retain more information, understand concepts more rapidly and are more enthusiastic about what they are
