Just recently, a racial hate crime was carried out in my high school and a series of fights took place afterwards, and are still continuing to this day. My teachers and several students are attempting to start a new program based on conflict/resolution. Do you have any ideas on how we can implement this into our classrooms?

Note: We want to start this program in Humanitas, already existing SLC (Small Learning Community) LA, CA

"This web site is the result of multiple research initiatives funded by the Office of Special Education Programs, U.S. Department of Education, to study:


conflict resolution and peer mediation in middle schools
&
the preventive effects of an anger management/social problem-solving curriculum for upper elementary and middle/junior high school students
These projects resulted in the following curricular materials:


1. Working Together to Resolve Conflict curriculum (middle/junior high)


2. Working Together to Resolve Conflict peer mediation training manual (middle/junior high)


3. Tools for Getting Along (upper elementary)


4. Take CHARGE! (middle/junior high)

Working Together to Resolve Conflict is a school-wide conflict resolution program that was tested extensively over a four year period. It has been used in over 50 school districts in the United States and world-wide.


We developed Tools for Getting Along, an anger management and social problem solving curriculum, over a six-year period and have implemented it with approximately 2000 students in over 50 classrooms. More recently, we developed Take CHARGE! --a similar program--for middle and junior high school students.

In response to multiple requests to make these materials available and provide consultative support and training, we include specific information at the Consultation & Training and Materials links.


We are pleased to be part of an ongoing endeavor to help young
people handle their social conflict constructively.

I would suggest that you or your teachers look at the George Mason University conflict resolution department website. Maybe a professor there can advise over email.

the u.s. isn't unique in fixing the age at 21. i do no longer see a project in any respect with the present device. in case you do, which you should to check your man or woman obsession with alcohol. How approximately this compromise: between 18-21 you may legally have a drink yet provided which you do not have a drivers license or a motor vehicle. That way, those childrens obsessed on booze could have it yet they could be much less possibly to tension decrease than the impression of alcohol. so which you ought to compliment to drink or to tension. Makes as plenty experience as your plan.
