Abstract

Cyberbullying is a growing concern that negatively impacts individuals' well-being and online experiences. This project presents an interactive educational website designed to raise awareness of cyberbullying and promote responsible digital behavior. The platform features ten learning modules that address common cyberbullying scenarios, such as online exclusion, rumor spreading, and fake profiles, using realistic examples and interactive assessments. The website provides practical strategies for responding to harmful online behavior, managing emotions, seeking support, and reporting incidents. Built with a responsive design, it is accessible on smartphones, tablets, and desktop devices, making it suitable for students, educators, and families. By combining engaging content with actionable guidance, the platform aims to foster safer, more respectful, and inclusive online communities.
