You found a great resource! It provides a clear definition of cyberbullying and some good examples to reinforce these ideas. Moreover, the examples give learners specific scenario examples that they could relate to their own real-life events.
I agree with your point that students are likely to engage through-learner generated responses, despite the videos passive nature. Cyberbullying is an emotional topic that can bring up a lot of feelings when discussed. This video is no expectation, seeing the real-world scenarios may cause a learner to remember something that happened to them or a friend, evoking an emotional response.
I also really like the activity you designed. It really gets the learner thinking deeper about how cyberbullying may show up and what they can look like. Additionally, your activity encourages learners to move beyond passive consumption of these tools and more into more critical reflection. Great job!
