Several modes of expressive arts may be especially
appropriate for peace education and conflict resolution
instruction in early childhood and teacher education
classrooms. This paper explores the integration of the
concepts and processes of peace education and conflict
resolution through an examination of current research and
professional development publications, as well as
observations made in selected U.S. early education and
teacher education classrooms. The paper focuses on the
role of the dramatic and language arts in fostering peace
education and conflict resolution. With regard to early
education, the paper is informed by several sources,
including literature on brain-based learning and multiple
intelligences. Also discussed is the effective use of
reflective listening, reading and storytelling, journal
writing, creative drama, dramatic play, and problem-
solving techniques. The report concludes that peace
education strategies developed through appropriate
dramatic and puppet play and other language and
communication experiences can counteract the violent
images depicted in the media and many children's toys.
Language and literacy experiences can foster peace
education and conflict resolution and play an important
role in early childhood teacher education. (Contains 54
references.) (KB)
