Some students with emotionally/behaviorally disorders have never been taught appropriate ways to handle day to day conflicts while other students have been exposed to elective classes on social skills and conflict management. The literature states that there are effective and comprehensive curriculums to handle the instruction of conflict resolution skills. Through a series of interviews with students who have and have not been exposed to conflict resolution curricula, this study explored the differences those curricula had on the students compared to another group of students who hadn't been exposed …
