Online Courses and Educational Materials
Here we have two "self study" courses based on Beyond Intractability and CRInfo (a partner site of Beyond Intractability). Instructors should feel free to adopt some or all of these syllabi for their own use, (acknowledging BI as the source of the readings, of course), although we would appreciate feedback of what you used, and how you "packaged it" within other teaching materials. (Sending us your syllabus is considered "fair trade." If students use BI as an alternative to a text book, we would appreciate your asking them to contribute a small fee to its maintanance--see the contribution page for guidelines. -
CETR - Conflict Education and Training Resources
This system presents an opportunity for clients to partner with Beyond Intractability to produce an affordable, next- generation learning system tailored to the needs of a specific community. -
Student Contributor Program
This program asks students, as part of their term paper assignment, to write needed segments of the Knowledge Base. Quality papers will be published as part of the system, giving students recognition and a sense that they are making a meaningful contribution. For more information about how to do this, go to the participation page. - Virtual Textbook Program allows instructors to redesign their texts as often as they want. Online expert interviews, each 30-60 minutes in duration, are also available for use as virtual "guest lecturers." Beyond Intractability
