Conflict Management and Resolution - Thursday Period 1 (9-10) - Class #2
There were more baked and sugary goodies today as Wilson leaned against the front of his desk and sipped at his coffee, watching the class file in.
“Good morning everybody," pulling the overhead projector films from his satchel, Wilson walked over to the projector and flipped it on.
“All right, let’s get started today. We’ve got a lot of material to cover.”
Lecture:
“Today in class I want to discuss the typical types of conflicts you will encounter. Now I say typical but I want you to understand that very little is ever going to be by the book when dealing with an actual conflict. People, peoples and beings are all too widely varied and unique for every situation to be exactly the same. So I want you to think of these more as guidelines, foundations upon which to grow your own ability to identified the core form of a conflict and work from there.”
Setting the first film on the overhead Wilson continued for the next half hour going over,
Interpersonal Conflict
Organizational/Business
Education: General
Intergroup Conflicts
Community / Environment / Public Policy Conflicts
International Conflict
Intractable Conflict
Justice Conflicts
Each conflict type was carefully detailed out over the series of slides.
Interpersonal Conflict: Family Conflict -Family conflicts can often be extremely difficult because the people can never get away from each other--they will always be family. The closeness can lead to especially intense conflicts. Student conflicts - Student conflicts are conflicts that take place in schools or universities and and involve students. They include conflicts between students, between students and faculty, between students and administrators, between students and dorm residents. Youth (Non-School) Conflicts (i.e. Gangs) - Youth conflicts are conflicts that involve children, occur outside of school, and are not gang related. Workplace - Workplace conflicts are conflicts take place in a work setting and involve co-workers, or employees and employers. Interpersonal Violence Prevention - Interpersonal violence prevention refers to any process that is used to prevent, mitigate, or resolve violence between private individuals.
Organizational/Business: The overhead slide detailed out various examples of conflicts for this group.
Education: General: Another handy dandy slide.
Intergroup Conflicts: Hey it saves you from his handwriting, which is a conflict all it’s own!
Community / Environment / Public Policy Conflicts: Yet more conflicts.
International Conflict: Who said you weren’t going to be taking a lot of notes?
Intractable Conflict: Almost there!
Justice Conflicts: Annnd last one!
Class Discussion:
“All right, I know this is a lot of material I’ve just thrown at you so we’re going to take one small section for discussion in class today. “
Sliding away from the desk, Wilson switched off the overhead projector and turned back up the lights.
“Speaking in the hypothetical only, I don’t want to hear about your roommate stealing your socks or how mean Professor so and so is, I want you to think about a possible student conflict scenario and then discuss with the class how you would propose to manage the conflict to the positive resolution of both parties. To keep this manageable for the class period lets work with conflicts that would be student to student conflict, or a student to faculty conflict.”
Sliding up onto the desk he smiled impishly at the class.
“All right, don’t be shy…and don’t make me call on you.”
Homework:
“I threw a lot of information at you today but it’s all very important information to this class as a whole. I want you all to review your notes, get them organized, think of any questions you might have of the information we went over and be prepared for a quick, small written quiz at the start of class next week.”

...and wondering if her discussion with Anders about killing his laptop counted as conflict?

He knew something about family conflict, oh yes.

The State tax's connected to the County Tax.
The County Tax's connected to the Local Tax.
The Local tax's connected to the City Tax.
The City Tax's connected to the Parish Tax.
... and honestly it just keeps going from there. I mean, really... LITTER TAX??!?!?
