Abstract
This paper presents and discusses the results of a case study of student online aggression on social media. The study examines the following issues: (1) How frequent is online aggression among students? (2) What are forms of expression used to commit online aggression? (3) What are policies the school and student families have to prevent and reduce online aggression? This case study revealed that the frequency of social media-facilitated aggression varied according to the role of a student in aggression: as a witness, a victim or a perpetrator. The highest frequency of student online aggression in social media was reported by witnesses, followed by victims and perpetrators. Cursing/swearing words were the most frequent expression used by students while threatening words were the least frequent. Both the school and families have no specific policies to prevent and reduce student online aggression.
