FOSTERING PEACE EDUCATION THROUGH LANGUAGE TEACHING AND LEARNING

PRADIPTA DEY SARKAR

Abstract

Peace education is the current need of the society. Day by day peace education is gaining popularity in every sphere of education. This paper throws light on various strategies that can be employed to promote peace in a language learning classroom. Development of feeling for peace-making among language learners can be accomplished by employing several strategies that will help to differentiate between intolerance, anarchy etc. on the one hand and peace on the other. Simultaneously such strategies will increase language proficiency among language learners. These strategies will also grow a feeling of empathy which in turn will lead to maintain communal harmony in the classroom as well as in the society.
