Re: problem-solving models

[Alice Yucht <aliceinfo@USA.NET>]

As I wrote to Janet:

One of the guidance counselors in my school is now using my FLIP it! fram=
ework
as the model for all 'conflict resolution' activities:
   Students involved in a disagreement must meet with a mediator and:
   *F* ocus on the cause (identify the specific topic/action that
precipitated
   the argument)
   *L* ook at each person's point of view objectively
   *I* dentify the details they both agree on
   *P* lan a mutually agreeable way to resolve the Problem.

Based on that discussion, all parties must come to some kind of resolutio=
n,
and sign an *I*ndividual *T*urnaround agreement to document that the argu=
ment
is over.

   Does that help?

   For more information about FLIP it! look at my website at
