5. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PARTNERSHIP Please note that this section must be completed jointly by all organisations participating and must be identical in each copy submitted to each National Agency. 5.1 SUMMARY Summary of the planned. This description may be used by the European Commission and/or the National Agency when providing information on selected projects, so please be clear and precise and do not exceed 200 words. There are two disturbing problems of our time: the lack of discipline among a lot of the student (it can severely interrupt lessons); and the lack of motivation (the students are often rewarded materially by their parents, in order to make them to study regularly). These two critical situations bring to the necessity of the consistent parental involvement ir children s education. Discipline problems and disrespect towards the others among teenagers became more a rule than an exception, and these negative attitudes and actions severely impact the motivation of the students to learn and to do a high-quality work ir studies. It also distracts those students who really want to study. Many teachers and students are also gravely bothered by the disorder and danger at school, and not without a reason: approximately every month 3 % of teachers and students in urban schools, and 1-2% in rural schools are robbed or physically attacked. In addition to this, some classrooms are frequently disrupt by other, minor kind of misbehaviour that interrupts the plan of classroom activities and interfere in learning process. A great part of the lesson is dedicated to the discipline problems rather than to the instruction. The cultivation of good habits and discipline in students is a process that must be developed in a partnership, coordinated and communicated with parents and school. Our proposal is to establish common criteria to define a protocol of behaviour. 14

5.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE PARTNERSHIP - What are the concrete objectives of the partnership? - Explain what subjects or problems you intend to address. - What approach will you take to achieve your objectives? The subject of this project is to present the innovative approach in resolving conflicts in schools and classrooms, creating a safer atmosphere, more productive lesson environment based on making "Peaceable Classrooms". This model represents classroom and school as communities of care and respect, where we underline 6 important topics: cooperation, communication, emotional expression, responsible decision-making, appreciation of diversity, and conflict resolution. This approach will be based on the teacher s own experiences and will be tested on the schools that take part creation of the project. The objectives of the project are: - To identify the cause of violence in Europe - To identify and discuss the six themes of the Peaceable Classroom - To explore the link between violence and conflict - To analyze conflicts using the Conflict Escalator - To understand the role of emotions in conflict situations and to learn to handle them effectively - To learn how to use the six styles of conflict resolution - To explore how to reach "win-win" resolutions in typical conflict situations - To learn the principles of "win-win" negotiation and mediation - To explore how perspective-taking can enhance conflict resolution - To examine how racial, cultural and ethnic diversity affects conflict and conflict resolution - To experience cooperative learning strategies as a means for building community in a school or a classroom - To develop an implementation plan for school or classroom The project will be divided in 10 points between: - The overview of Violence Prevention and Conflict Resolution - Communication to De-escalate Conflict - Feelings in Conflict - Solving Conflicts - Negotiation and Mediation - Cooperation and Perspective-taking - Diversity and Conflict - More on Diversity and Conflict - Conflict Resolution as a Component in Classroom Management and discipline - Infusion and Implementation A lot of teenagers are caught up in daily conflicts. They do not know how to overcome teasing, jealousy, and physical aggression. Juvenile delinquency and violence are symptoms of youth's inability to get over conflicts in their lives. Teaching youth how to manage conflict in a productive way can help to reduce incidents of violent behaviour. Conflict resolution education is a beneficial component of a comprehensive violence prevention and intervention program in schools and communities. Conflict resolution education encompasses the problem solving in which in dispute the parties express their points of view, voice their interests, and find mutually acceptable solutions. 18

Two years is a long a period of time to keep the project alive and effective. Such a long period may cause the lack of communication and cooperation among the participants in this period. However; in order to achieve an effective partnership in terms of management, process and evaluation, each participating organisation will set up a project team with a team leader. These team leaders will form the steering group for the project. The communication and cooperation between all the participating institutions will be mainly provided by these team leaders. - Website: The website of the project will be a "private area" where only partners will have an access. Each partner will have the possibility to write emails to one or all the partners in this area. The partners will be provided with the information as: news, meeting (the previous one, and the next one), materials, evaluation, contact information, mailing list, chat (real time). - Reporting: Periodic reports about the work progress will be issued every month. When the coordinator places the report, it will be sent automatically to all the partners from the mailing list. - Transnational meetings and mobility: There will be 3 transnational meetings per year, where the strategies, the short term and the long term activity plans as well as the results will be discussed, and the important decisions will be taken if necessary. This type of communication is the best method to guarantee an effective cooperation, to set up changes and socialize people. - New information and communication technologies: The communication between the partners during the partnership period and between the transnational meetings will be assured by the use of new information and communication technologies: emails, discussion forum, blogs, etc. We offer to use several possibilities of communication among partners such as: - Skype free software for teleconference - Messenger (Microsoft or Yahoo) as free software - ICQ as free software - Email (two accounts) The effective cooperation and communication between the participating institutions will be organised by means of face-to-face meetings, on-line conference during the international meetings, common practical activities and research, e-mail, forum, telephone and fax when necessary. Thus, we will share our opinions and exchange information on professional, practical methodological approaches. We will work together on various materials and publications that are useful in our activity.
