%ACADEMIC COURSE MITIGATING VIOLENCE STRUCTURE PART 080713
   %CONFLICT RESOLUTION DOMINEERING BULLIES CONTROL 080713
  %SEMINAR TWO THREE STUDENTS TEAM PROJECTS REPORTS 080713

A course on MITIGATING-VIOLENCE as suggested in proceeding
essays  can helpfully be offered as a combination  of  the
following structural elements:

 1.  A  few opening seminar sessions in which the students
and  instructor(s)  get acquainted with each other and the
intended aspects of the course of study.

 2.  The  formation by the students of work-groups of  two
or  three students to focus upon  study/research  projects
mutually  agreed  upon  and articulated.  In  these  early
sessions students would interview each other to  learn how
to  write descriptions each other's strengths,  weaknesses
and  challenges  which may bear  upon  their abilities  to
cooperate  in  fulfilling  their   mutually  agreed   upon
study/research projects; including cultural, religious and
family encounters with conflicts, violence, violence, etc.
These  efforts  would  entail  mutual  agreements  to  the
adequacy  of the final descriptions of each  other and  of
two   or   three  projects  they  agree  to  work  on   in
collaborative  ways.   The  groups'  projects may focus on
retrospective   analyses  of  why  efforts  at   Conflict-
MITIGATION  have not born  sweet fruit in the past  and/or
suggestions about how to approach  Conflict-MITIGATION  in
particular  evolving situations  within the coming  months
and years.  History books and the current news media offer
partial  and often confusing descriptions of many possible
foci.

 3.  During  the  middle  time period of  the  course  the
students  would work primarily "on-line"  with each  other
and  the  instructor(s);  but might also arrange  for  in-
person work sessions as might be helpful.   A  schedule of
interactions would be agreed  upon  by those who are to be
involved in such sessions.

 4.  Near the  end of the course there would be  a  few in
person  seminar sessions for the students in the course to
share   concluding   reports,   interactions  and   mutual
evaluations of their work, findings and recommendations.
