Decreasing Violence Through Conflict Resolution Education In Schools
Jeanne Asherman
ABSTRACT: In an effort to address the fear of parents, “Zero Tolerance Policies” are being applied in schools in such a way as to penalize minor conflicts. Research has consistently shown conflict resolution training to be a far more effective means of decreasing violence. This article concludes that schools can not avoid being involved in teaching children methods of conflict resolution and have a responsibility to consciously insure that appropriate methods are being taught.
