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) | |
