In 30 years of teaching, I've never seen anything that deals as effectively with teaching the skills of coping with everyday conflict situations as the BeCool series.

The Cool Way to Respond to Conflict. Field-Tested and Proven Effective

BeCool is the first program developed specifically to nourish the key elements of emotional intelligence: impulse control, empathy and self-awareness. Within the context of teaching how to be assertive, BeCool teaches kids specific reflective thinking techniques to promote self-control and interrupt the tendency to impulsively act out.

In each of the video scenarios, students are challenged by a difficult person - someone who is attempting to intimidate or manipulate them - or a challenging situation.

Your students will watch as their video peers hesitate and then model three different ways to respond to conflict:

1. Blowing up (HOT);
2. Giving up (COLD);
3. In Control (COOL)
BeCool system

Each age-level series comes with individual modules, complete with a minimum of three video tapes and a comprehensive teacher's guide, to teach coping skills in different problem areas.

Five age ranges are addressed in the six-part BeCool series:
        · Lower Elementary. Learn more »
      
· Upper Elementary. Learn more »
        · Upper Elementary to Middle School Bridge Learn more »
        · Middle School. Learn more »
        · High School. Learn more »

Two programs are available at the middle school level:
        · Middle School 1: Coping with Difficult People Learn more »
        · Middle School 2: Give and Take: Negotiate Learn more »

Our newest offering in the series is Losing It, geared toward the Upper Elementary to Middle School population.

Individual modules may be purchased separately to target one problem area (i.e., Coping with Criticism), but most educators have reported their best results with use of the entire age-appropriate program.
