Negotiation teachers encourage their students to be inventive, improve agreements, and push outward on the “pareto” frontier. Likewise, teachers can improve their practice by seeking value, sometimes in other disciplines. In general, negotiation is taught through a combination of lectures with simulation exercises and debriefings. Feminist pedagogy enhances this normative model of teaching negotiation. This article links the traditional method of teaching negotiation with four key principles of feminist pedagogy.
