About TAB
TAB is a comprehensive bullying prevention program that helps children
take responsible action by:
 |
Changing attitudes towards teasing and bullying |
|
Changing attitudes toward children with differences,
particularly children who stutter |
|
Providing a problem-solving approach using conflict
resolution strategies |
|
Encouraging peers to become active |
|
Encouraging children who bully to change their
behaviour |
TAB was developed over a six-year period in
consultation with elementary education teachers, counsellors and students.
It was extensively field tested with 900 students and 37 teachers and has
been shown to improve attitudes towards bullying, victims, and children who
stutter
(Langevin, 1998).
Designed for use by teachers and school counsellors, TAB is
also adaptable for use by psychologists, social workers, speech-language
pathologists and others who work with children and their families. |
