Conflict

Conflict

Okay - so now that you've brainstormed words, feelings, emotions etc. associated with conflict it is time to blog about them.  You have three tasks:

1. Create an initial blog post that discusses what you know about conflict.  This should be about 250 to 500 words.  You may want to give an example of something you have experienced or observed.  I'd also like you to include your reactions to conflict or what you have observed in others, the emotions and feelings that lead up to conflict, the emotions and feelings that are present with conflict, and emotions and feelings associated with unresolved as well as resolved conflict.  (25 pts)

2.  Comment on the blogs posted by at least 2 other classmates.  Preferably to those individuals you do not have close friendships with.  Please be thoughtful and positive.  You comments must be 50 to 100 words.  The idea here is to extend the conversation.  Find a way to relate to the post, ask a question, make a connection, empathize etc. (25 pts)

3.  Conflict is often associated with negativity; is that always the case.  Please discuss in about 100 words. (25 pts)

Grades:  Based on the effort that you put into the assignment.
