Dear Education Section Readership:

Call for Submissions

Are you a scholar or practitioner in the field of Conflict Resolution Education?

Are you interested in sharing your work among your peers?

Here is your chance!

The Fourth R is the semi-annual newsletter of the Education Section of the Association for Conflict Resolution, and a venue for presenting conflict resolution education research, writing, and artistic works.  After the success of the 2007 year, The Fourth R is back in action and pleased to announce the call for submissions for May 2008!

ACR’s Education Section provides resources and support for practitioners, educators, students, young people, trainers, community activists, and administrators in the fields of peace and conflict resolution in pre-K-12 to higher learning settings. Accessible to all, The Fourth R is a great way for the conflict resolution education community to network and share their work with all.

We Invite your articles of approximately 800-1500 words related to your research and work in the field of conflict resolution education. The Fourth R’s May 2008 issue will highlight works on Addressing Special Education Needs for Students in Conflict Resolution Education. Submissions for feature articles may cover current projects or evaluation of past endeavors, as well as related events or on-going research.  Contributors are also welcome to submit book or curriculum reviews, poetry, pictures, cartoons, student reflections or work on peer mediation, short descriptions of innovative or peer mediation programs, news clips, announcements, and more.

Your work for the May 2008 issue must be submitted in an electronic, word-processing format (preferably Microsoft Word) by February 15, 2008.  All work must be the original work of the author, and will be thoroughly reviewed by the editors.
