To really get the hang of these rather abstract concepts for students we have included a section called EXAM TIP in which they will find real sample sentences showing how those strategies and skills materialize into sentences they can use to demonstrate them.

For the former, we have included a guide with the mediation strategies and microskills that mediators are likely to use when they are relaying the message. They are invited to identify which of them they have used to produce their mediated message.
You have the same topic available in Written Mediation format, so you can choose the one that suits you best.
