AMLE Thought Leader Session: I Know What The Problem Is But How Do I Fix It?

Join Rosalind Wiseman & Charlie Kuhn for a Thought Leader Session at AMLE 2017: I Know What The Problem Is But How Do I Fix It?

While middle school students can often identify a social conflict, knowing what to do about it can be confusing and intimidating. This session will outline the common challenges that stop young people from intervening in social conflicts with others or stand up for themselves and provide a strategy to teach young people how to articulate themselves in a conflict and how to receive feedback when someone is angry with them.

Participants will leave this session with:

– The structure to teach students how to articulate negative feelings in a healthy manner
– Recognizing the connections between adolescent development and group dynamics
– How to empower students with the knowledge to effectively intervene in social conflicts with their peers
