Anger management strategies have become an important topic in schools, businesses, homes and communities. Our society is inundated with classes, books and counseling programs that explain various ways to "manage anger."Despite our best attempts, aggression and violence are still on the rise. This class will focus on developing new ways of handling violence without getting involved in the typical power struggles. Students will learn specific strategies and practical ideas to aid in the reduction of school violence. Key intervention ideas for developing a civil climate within each school will be presented, and identification and recognition of potential violence will be discussed. Included in this approach will be an emphasis on safety for students and educators. This course is not attempting to be a "cure all" or "fix it" approach, but will aid educators in their ability to develop a safer environment in a school and community. 2 Undergraduate Credits.
