This insightful book guides instructors on how to introduce students to the interdisciplinary work of Peace and Conflict Studies (PACS). Mindful that many students come to PACS with a desire to create positive social change, Susan F. Hirsch and Agnieszka Paczynska highlight engaged learning as a key method for PACS pedagogy and emphasise the need to teach theory with an inclusive and decolonialist approach. The book offers both new and experienced instructors of undergraduate and postgraduate students concrete advice regarding structuring assignments, designing classroom-based engaged learning activities and highlighting reflective practice and ethics.

Key Features:

• Focuses on delivering an engaged, inclusive and decolonialist PACS programme.
• Provides practical advice on how to design introductory and elective PACS courses for undergraduate and postgraduate students.
• Includes detailed instructions for developing and implementing in-class experiential learning exercises alongside tools for effectively assessing student learning.

Building instructors' capacity to teach effectively and inclusively with the aim of practical post-course application, Teaching Peace and Conflict Studies will be an invaluable resource across peace and conflict studies, anthropology, sociology, history, political science, international relations, women's studies, African American studies and global studies. It will also be essential reading for graduate students looking to move into teaching positions, as well as faculty, staff and students in graduate education schools.
