Abstract
Research indicates that there are almost a half million acts of violence in American schools annually with over 20% of high school students reporting that they have been bullied. School safety and security in these modern times is more than just policing – it is about connecting with students and parents. Dr. Steve Webb discusses technology implications based on his recent book, Education in a Violent World, twenty-first century school safety issues, and lessons learned from the rash of school violence in America.
