Paper Summary:
This paper describes student responses to a movie program designed to teach core values of non-violence and tolerance and discusses these findings in the larger context of the juvenile criminal justice system and society.From the Paper:
"In my last eight years as a teacher at a juvenile detention facility, I have struggled to find meaningful ways to reach my students. Students are often highly resistant to both authority and advice from sources that they initiated a Friday afternoon movie program at the juvenile detention facility as a way to encourage nonviolence as a literary study. This format was chosen because it may be a way to introduce the concept of nonviolence in a way that is non-threatening and approachable for my students. Further, it masquerades as entertainment, encouraging participation in the program."More papers on Teaching Non-Violence to Children:
