Online Workshop:

Teaching Conflict Management in the Classroom K-12

Many K-12 students struggle with handling conflict in a productive manner, which results in teachers spending inordinate amounts of time dealing with conflictual behavior between students and directed at teachers themselves. This workshop will assist educators in building an individualized conflict-management curriculum for their students that can be incorporated into a variety of subjects as well as addressing the social and emotional teaching mandates for their particular grades. Course participants will conduct a quick needs assessment in order to put together a curriculum based on their own individual needs in the classroom and select materials to teach to their students – listening and communication skills, dealing with anger, saving face, being assertive rather than aggressive, problem-solving and conflict management techniques. The course is taught by Dr. Jennifer Maxwell, a Â鶹¾«Ñ¡ Emeritus Professor who has taught conflict management skills at the university level for over 40 years. Dr. Maxwell holds a current State of Ohio Professional Teachers License in both Social Studies (7-12) and Art (K-12) and a current Ohio License of Social Work (LSW).
