The Crocels Trolling Academy was founded by online community authority, Jonathan Bishop, following mass media misrepresentation of trolling as being a type of activity solely used to harm others. Based within Swansea University, as part of the independent social enterprise Crocels CMG CYF we are the premier source for up-to-date information on all aspects of Internet trolling and so-called “trolls”.
Jonathan Bishop has been researching concepts like trolling since the dawn of the century. He has had research published in books by leading information science publisher IGI Global every year since 2008. He has previously won ‘Letter of the Week‘ in the Daily Mail in March 2011 for a featured letter exposing the misrepresentation of trolling, which can be a positive and mutually rewarding pursuit for Internet users, and has been called upon to give expert opinion by ITV News and BBC Radio Wales. He is editor of the book, ‘Examining the Concepts, Issues and Implications of Internet Trolling.’
