This practicum was designed to address the problem of middle school students reacting to and handling conflict situations with violent behavior in an urban environment. These responses affected the well-being and safety of all middle school students at the school. The major goal was for middle school students to increase their awareness of conflicts as a natural part of daily life and resolve them without violence through problem-solving skills. The participants were 60 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students. The following tools were developed for this practicum: (1) student questionnaire; (2) thirty-two interactive classes for middle school students; (3) teacher survey; (4) direct observation checklist; (5) appropriate handouts; and (6) a two-session workshop for educators and parents on conflict management and prosocial skills. Analysis of the data demonstrated that the middle school students became more aware of conflict management skills during a conflict situation and were able to resolve conflict without violence through problem-solving strategies. Additionally there was a decrease in confrontational behavior during incidences of potential disruption. Eight tables are included, as well as the following appendices: student questionnaire; teacher survey; direct observation checklist; pre- and post-test questionnaire (student); pre- and post-test questionnaire (teacher); pre- and post-direct observation checklist.
