Introduction You are running for President in the year As part of the election process, you must be educated on current controversial topics and possible future conflicts. More importantly, you must decide where you stand on these issues. The future of our world could be in your hands. Learn from the past and prepare for the future.

Task First, you will explore conflict and resolution in your own life. Then, you will explore conflicts in our country and around the world. Finally, as a group you will choose a controversial topic to explore in depth. Your group will prepare for a debate in which you will present your information. At the end of the debate, you will be expected to reach an agreement with the opposing group.

What is mediation? lw&tracker=False mediation.com/articles/define- mediation/types-of-mediation.php

Process – Step One Think of conflicts in your everyday life? What are some examples? How do you resolve the conflict? Write a personal narrative or a play illustrating a conflict you have experienced and how it was resolved.

Process- Step Two Visit the following website: Choose three court cases to examine. Consider the following: What were the issues at stake? What were the differing opinions in each case? How were the issues resolved? Have the issues been disputed again? How? Has there been a difference in more recent resolutions?

Process – Step Three What can you tell me about international conflicts? Visit the following website: Create an illustrated timeline summarizing 5 of the conflicts - (username: MsWiz Password: 12345http:// Can you think of alternative solutions?

You will then be split by your opinions. Once you are in your group, list what information you need to know in order to effectively be a part of a conflict resolution meeting. Begin your research log. What interests you???

Examples of guiding questions What is the point of view on this topic of a person in my role? Do I share or disagree with that point of view? How will this issue best be mediated? Who will the people be on the other side of the issue? Is there a middle ground on the issue or are their compromises which can be made from the perspective of my role? What would a concession look like from my side? What are the future impacts of varying decisions on the issue?

Research Components The issue to be resolved The three to five guiding questions you will investigate, as well as hypothetical answers to those questions from the perspective of your role. Resources you will need to find answers to questions, such as primary and secondary sources, correspondence with experts on the subject, etc (These should be specific websites, articles, etc…don’t forget GALE database)

Research Log Your research log contains resources used and notes from each source. (Should be completed in Microsoft word) Remember to use EasyBib and ask me if you need help. Research Log.doc
