Teachers...Good to Great!

Conflict resolution empowers the participants to maintain control of the process and the outcome. It is the age-old technique of sitting down to air the problem, expressing how the problem is making each participant feel, and together creating a solution that each person can embrace.

Somehow we seem to have moved away from talking things out. There's a desperate need to return to our roots of civility and humanity. 

We owe this to our children.

We owe this to ourselves.

Conflict Resolution: "Mediation is a voluntary method of resolving disputes and conflicts...it requires the participation of a mediator who operates from an impartial base and whose primary role is to promote an agreement.  Compromise is at the heart of a successfully mediated dispute, and the end result is that there are no winners nor losers but rather...generally satisfied individuals."  The Mediation Project, University Massachusetts/Amherst
