The challenge when integrating online videos in the classroom is that we all know that long videos, documentaries, and movies have never engaged all students. To some kids, it actually becomes a time to sleep! Most videos are not put together to be consistent with young learner's needs.

We are have identified some great cyber safety videos here, with an emphasis on cyber bullying. If you are looking for a short video to stimulate meaningful dialog about being safe online, these professionally produced public service announcements (PSA's) are exactly what you are seeking!
