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.

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:http://library.thinkquest.org/11572/cc/index.html
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?

including the following:
Guiding questions Research components

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)
