SSC-5044: Conflict Resolution in Education

Examine the nature and dynamics of conflict and ways to resolve and transform conflict. Experiential earning is used as the vehicle. Explore assumptions about communication and develop skills for resolving interpersonal conflicts. How do you guide children through racial tensions, gender differences, variations in class, gender, and economics, bullying, and the specific challenges the participants in this course present? We will apply UDL to curriculum creation to prevent conflict. This course is designed to provide you with a deeper understanding of important topics to resolve conflict in school settings such as: components of restorative conflict resolution in the classroom, development of resilience, how a child organizes trust, emotional metabolism (when and how it is set and how to support can change), neurobiology of restorative approaches to conflict, how to stimulate self-reflection with each age child. We will address the importance of building trusting relationships between teacher and student and among the students themselves. This course includes creating a restorative environment. Activities, discussions, and simulations provide opportunity to reflect, hone, and develop conflict resolution skills with all age children. The goal is to create a safe space to constructively engage in conflict situations and restore well-being in relationships.
