What happens when children begin to listen to each other – not just to their words, but also to their feelings and their actions?  My colleagues and I are investigating the effect of engendering listening among children and adolescents, using the resource of the Little Box of Big Questions (Gersch & Lipscombe, 2012). We are also piloting a study during which senior students will mentor small groups of younger students within a high school setting.  Senior students will initially be trained in the skills of communication and engagement of others.
