An examination of mediation from the perspective of high school students in the role of disputants, an initial exploration

The focus of this study was the mediation program that was instituted as part of the Kildonan East Collegiate Conflict Resolution Initiative. The purpose of this thesis was to collect and analyze the experiences of students who have had their conflicts resolved through mediation. These experiences were collected through a process of detailed interviews. This area of research, the disputants' perceptions and understandings of their experiences in the mediation process, and the method of collecting data, detailed interviews, were se ected because of the little attention this area has garnered in previous research and that most of the data that was collected in this area was done by survey that failed to capture the richness and fullness of the disputants' experiences. The results of these interviews tend to indicate that ediation offers the school administration an effective option in resolving student conflict and that mediation may have the potential to impact on how students resolve subsequent conflicts.

Narrative Experiences of school personnel using Conversation Peace RJ mediation

Narratively explores the experiences of five public school counsellors and one high school teacher using Conversation Peace, a restorative action peer mediation program published jointly in 2001 by Fraser Region Community Justice Initiatives Association (CJI), Langley, British Columbia, Canada, and School District #35, Langley, British Columbia, Canada. This categorical-content analysis (Lieblich, Tuval-Mashiach, & Zilber, 1998) resulted in data describing 20 common themes, 12 with similar responses, and 8 with varying responses amongst participants. Two of the similar findings were the crucial importance of (a) confidentiality within the mediation process, and (b) the school counsellor’s role within the overall and day-to-day implementation of this peer mediation program. Two of the varying findings were (a) the time involvement of the school counsellor within the peer mediation program, and (b) the differences in the number of trained peer mediators and peer mediations within schools.
