Cure the Bullies

Cure the Bullies is an awesome website.  Part of a campaign created by SchoolAid, in partnership with the Vodafone Foundation, this site is certainly entertaining and attention grabbing.  You are welcomed by this warning:

"Cyber health warning!
Have you been online lately?  (like now?)
or on your mobile
Then you've probably caught....
A HIGHLY contagious virus."

After learning about the different viruses you can be inflicted with: Onlookerosis, Commentitis, Forwarditis, Gang-Green, Hasslenza and Slaggermania you are invited to be screened for the bully virus (a short survey including multiple "what would you do" questions). 

Once you receive your diagnosis, you get the virus sucked out of you and then you pickle it for later viewing.

Though light on actually teaching skills, I like that this points out that even students who think they are not bullies probably contribute sometimes simply by looking on or not doing anything to help others.  They have done a wonderful job creating a site kids will enjoy and can take home a positive message at the same time!  The site is flash based which caused some problems on my computer but nothing drastic.  I definitely encourage you to check this out with your students!
