Description: VESi/ Online Class; INSTRUCTOR: Sedler. You can register for this course anytime between Sept. 1 - Dec. 31, 2009 and work at your own pace. Anger management strategies have become an important topic in schools, businesses, homes and communities. Our society is inundated with classes, books and counseling programs that explain various ways to 'manage anger.' Despite our best attempts, aggression and violence are still on the rise. This class will focus on developing new ways of handling violence without getting involved in the typical power struggles. During this course, each person will learn specific strategies and practical ideas to aid in the reduction of school violence. Included in this approach will be an emphasis on safety for students and educators. This course is not attempting to be a 'cure all' or 'fix it' approach, but will aid educators in their ability to develop a safer environment in a school and community. In addition, it will help each person feel more qualified and capable of handling emerging violent behaviors within a school, home or community setting.
