Peace Learning Center Curriculum Mapping Project: CUME Research Report

Abstract

This research report is an evolving tool designed to build a peace education curriculum and a research evaluation process to measure the effectiveness of peace education programs. The goal of the Curriculum Mapping Project is to outline components of Peace Learning Center (PLC) programs, learning objectives of each component, relevant research that demonstrates each component’s relevance and effectiveness, and help develop evaluation tools and systems to gauge the effectiveness of peace education programs, and connections with the State of Indiana’s Academic Standards.
