Proposal+Marissa

__ Final Project Proposal __ I have chosen to do the impact of girl bullying because I find it really fascinating that although girls normally don’t physically fist fight, they bully other people by hurting them psychologically. Personally I think that the bullying most girls do is more detrimental to people’s self esteem but through this project I hope to learn more about the impacts of the different types of bullying and their effects on females. ** __Essential question: __ ** How are the different types of nonphysical bullying, effect females self esteem?  In order to know the different types of bullying, I will first need to figure out different ways girls and guys bully each other. Once I define the difference between the different types of bullying, I can start to figure out how I am going to take the differences and see how they affect girls. I will do this by interviewing some of my counselors and taking a poll of the different beliefs of people from every age group. With all of this information, I can get some statistics and write part of the paper on the opinion of the public. Then by interviewing different teachers and counselors, I can’t get the different opinions from different generations of people and how it has changed over time. I will also look for the different levels of harassment and the effects of verbal harassment. I will also find the effects it has on girls self esteem. If they are affected by the verbal harassment, I will then explore how girls act differently and how it affects their everyday life. For my final project I want to show how verbal harassment effects a person that was bullied as a child versus a teenager/adult.
