ONE WORLD: TEACHING TOLERANCE AND PARTICIPATION
by Serghei I. Cartaşev

One World offers educators a practical curriculum for teaching tolerance and conflict resolution. Fifty hands on activities help students understand how personal values are formed; how misperceptions affect relationships; and how they can communicate effectively. Lessons on decision-making, creative thinking, and conflict management give them the practical skills that foster tolerance. Each lesson plan contains learning objectives, background information, materials needed, activities, activity or resource sheets, discussion questions, and teacher tips.

Every time you buy an iDebate Press book the proceeds go somewhere good. iDebate Press is a non-profit publishing venture, and all proceeds from book sales are used to finance grassroots activities around the world-crome creating debate clubs in Rwanda to organizing debate in maximum security prisons and youth citizen journalism trainings.
