- was held -
July 21st and 22nd, 2006
NONVIOLENCE IN OUR CLASSROOMS, IN OUR LIVES
Conference for Teachers at U.C. Berkeley
Nonviolence is an inspiring subject rarely if ever mined for its educational value. This conference offered teachers proven methodologies for conducting a less troubled classroom such as training students in the techniques and skills of creative conflict resolution. It also presented valuable resources for teaching the basic principles and history of nonviolence as a subject within California Standards through biography, history and other avenues.
