The use of simulation in teaching conflict can be an effective way to promote student involvement. The role of the classroom teacher is to deal with actual student conflict while facilitating the development of communication skills which will aid in the resolustion of conflict. This paper suggests one classroom model which utilizes a combination of instruments, exercises, and simulations in a three stage approach to the study of conflict. The first phase involves developing student awareness of various conflict management styles, the second involves building trust in the group, and the third phase simulates conflict. (Author)
