As every year, it firmly proposed to found some solutions, but this problem is so pressing and the educational measures so globalizers, that once again it turns into a declaration of intentions. This paper, explores a new show of bullying or school harassment among pupils, that is emerging for the possibilities that ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) offer to the aggressor pupils: the Cyberbullying. We analyze the concept of cyberbullying, its features, its effect and the different modes that it can take. Finally, it was reflect on the possibilities to consider the pedagogical proposal.
