Abstract
AbstractThis article reports on findings from a scan of 465 policies relevant to the handling of cyberbullying in 74 Canadian universities. It first assesses the commonalities and differences in the policies. Second, it considers how their various lenses—a human rights perspective versus a student conduct perspective, for instance—can affect the directions and outcomes of university responses. The majority of the policies reviewed were codes of student conduct and discipline, policies on electronic communication, and policies on harassment and discrimination. Most of the policies outlined complaint procedures and possible sanctions, but relatively few addressed prevention of unacceptable behaviours. Only about a third made reference to “cyber” behaviours, suggesting that the university policy environment is not current with the information and communication technologies that permeate the daily lives of university students and faculty. RésuméCet article rapporte les résultats d’un survol de 465 politiques ayant trait à la cyberintimidation et provenant de 74 universités canadiennes. Il évalue d’abord ces politiques pour en établir les points communs et les différences. Puis, il examine comment leurs différentes perspectives, les politiques des droits de la personne et les codes de conduite étudiante, par exemple, peuvent affecter l’orientation et les résultats des réactions universitaires. La majorité des politiques consultées représentaient des codes de conduite et de discipline à l’intention des étudiants, des politiques de communication électronique et des politiques contre le harcèlement et la discrimination. Tandis que la plupart des politiques esquissaient des procédures de traitement des plaintes et identifiaient les sanctions possibles, très peu d’entre elles abordaient la prévention des comportements jugés inacceptables. Environ un tiers seulement faisaient référence aux cyber-comportements, ce qui sous-entend qu’il existe un décalage entre les politiques en milieu universitaire et les technologies de l’information et de la communication qui font partie du quotidien des étudiants et des membres du corps professoral.
