This document provides a brief history of mediation and conflict resolution practices. It notes that negotiation, arbitration, and mediation have existed for as long as humans have in many ancient cultures. Mediation became more formalized with international treaties and diplomacy. The first school mediation programs began in the US in the 1960s and spread to other countries in subsequent decades. The document also distinguishes mediation from arbitration and discusses what types of conflicts are and are not appropriate for school peer mediation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2. A little piece of history:
Negotiation, arbitration and mediation are as old as
human being.
Despite what the movies show us, many ancient cultures all
over the world settled arguments by peaceful persuasion rather
than by sword.
Ancient villages had at least one leader who was skilled at
helping people solve problems (wise men, elders, intercessors,
conciliators …)
It has been and it still is a traditional form of conflict resolution
in some parts of Asia and Africa
Mediation really came into play with the advent of international
treaties. History of mediation was the history of diplomacy.
3. First school mediation programmes were born in the USA
in the 60’ linked to peace and justice education . (The
Teaching Students to be Peacemakers initiative was the
first Peer Mediation program. )
This conflict-solving philosophy moved to Canada, New
Zealand and UK in the 70’ and 80’.
The first school peer mediation programmes began to
develop in the 90’ in Europe (1992 in UK, 1993 in Spain).
4. In the Balearic Islands, the ICEE started
to work on school mediation in 2007
based on Carmen Boqué programmes.
Schools staff training programmes started in 2008:
2008-2009: 6 secondary schools
2009-2010: 9 secondary schools
2010-2011: 10 secondary schools + 1 primary school
2011-2012: 6 secondary schools + 3 primary schools
Social Services have been using different informal
mediation practices for a long time. They started using
formal mediation in 2007 with family and community
conflicts.
5. What is the difference between
mediation and arbitration?
• Arbitration involves decision Mediation is a process of
making by a person who hears communication in which
both sides and makes a decision persons with a dispute,
about the disposition or assisted by a mediator, reach

•The arbitrator is a decision-
facilitator
maker.

•Disputants may or may not own decision so they feel
agree/be bound by that decision. compelled to honour their
commitments.
6. What do Mediation and Circles
have in common?
Identical aims:
Solve conflicts
Build community (dialogue culture)
Allow participants to solve their conflicts
by their own.
Allow participants to express their thoughts, feelings
and needs
Invite parties to formulate their own solutions and take
responsibilities for their actions

communication skills
social and emotional learning

self-esteem

sense of belonging
8. Encourage future co-operation

Can be applied across school community
9. Ideal process to integrate into whole school
community policies and procedures
Participants usually sit in circle
There are facilitators (peer mediators)
Facilitators and Mediators need a
previous training
10. Differences:
Persons in conflict are disputants:
no wrongdoers
no victims
Only disputants and mediators
participate in the process
No shame, no guilt
Win/win solutions.
Mediation may not be useful for all conflicts-solving.
11. Things that can be mediated at school:
Relationship difficulties, arguments, disputes,
Rumour and gossip,
Being left out,
Name calling,
Friends falling out,
Feeling something isn’t fair,
People feel others are picking or teasing on them.
Racial or cultural confrontation

Family matters,
Breaking the law, school rules or property,
Violent actions,
Theft,
Drugs,
Abuse
Bullying
“anything to do with teeth, skin and hair”–Tyrell, 2002-
13. Take-home messages
The goal is to have winners instead of losers.
Remember, we’re not looking for who’s
right or wrong...
WE’RE LOOKING FOR AN AGREEMENT!
