Below is information about the number of years that women were in school between the ages of 15 and 44 in several countries from 2000-2009.
What is Consensus?
0Reaching a general agreement on an issue within a group.
0 It could be thought of as the collective opinion of the group members reached through discussion and compromise.
Adapted from “General Learning Outcome 5” Senior 4 English Language Arts: A Foundation for Implementation.4.82-84 (Manitoba Education and Training, 2000).
Types of discussion in reaching consensus
0 Exploratory talk – share ideas in order to better understand group member’s assumptions, values, and preferences. 0 At this stage, group members are active listeners, and may ask
follow-up or clarification questions.
0 Decision making – work to make a decision that represents consensus and reflects group values and goals. 0 Critical thinking, objectivity, and flexibility are vital at this stage.
Steps in Reaching Consensus:1) Ask each group member to express his/her ideas and
preferences.2) Identify the essential differences between these positions.3) Ask group members to state what they are willing to concede
(give up, compromise) in order to reach consensus
What language do we need at each step?
1) Ask each group member to express his/her ideas and preferences.
2) Identify the essential differences between these positions.
3) Ask group members to state what they are willing to concede (give up, compromise) in order to reach consensus
