Research DesignResearch DesignOne-Shot Case Study: Single group exposed to a treatment (X) and post surveyed (O).
Symbolic Design: XO
Independent Variable: Implementing role-playing and reading stories about character education to six first grade students will improve classroom environment and reduce bullying occurrences.
Dependent Variable: Bullying Occurrences and classroom environment.
The same treatment will be given to one group, three times a week, in late morning, for a period of three weeks.
Data: Pre and Post student surveys which aim to show what students already know or have experienced about bullying, as well as what they have learned as a result of intervention.

Analysis of Bar GraphAnalysis of Bar Graph• Prior to intervention,
I propose that 83.33% of my students will not realize that bullying is a problem at school. After intervention, I believe that the majority of them (50%) will strongly agree will become aware of what bullying is and be able to detect it right away.

In this chart, there is a positive correlation of .975. Therefore,
after intervention, students are more likely to intervene and thus are less likely to be bystanders. Hence, after my intervention, I
predict bullying occurrences with decrease as students intervene
in bullying incidents.
