We have designed this workshop to teach concrete, immediate, and experiential prevention and intervention skills that deal with the issues of conflict, anger, abuse, and bullying. Educators will learn what triggers conflict and anger; examine various conflict styles; explore competition as a possible root of conflict. This workshop offers concrete information on appropriate limits and boundaries; and makes clear the difference between assertive and aggressive behavior.
In this workshop participants will:
- Receive updated data on violence trends in America’s schools
- Examine patterns of violent and abusive behavior
- Learn skills to help schools prevent bullying
- Learn skills to stop the cycle of harassment and abuse
- Conduct conflict and anger self assessments
- Examine the conditions for abuse, harassment and violence
- Examine the effects of violence on victims
- Practice intervention strategies
