Sophia: Illustrating Multiple Positions to Reach Interests
At the end of this tutorial, the learner will understand how many positions might be expressed as a means of meeting a single interest, and that some positions may contain "hidden" interests.
Sophia Learning
Sophia: When Interests Are Values: Lesson 1
At the end of this tutorial, the learner will understand that some interests may be expressions of a party's personal values, and that values cannot be mediated. It is 1 of 3 in the series titled "When Interests are Values."
