Teaching online dispute resolution through a simulation exercise by Noam Ebner of Creighton University School of Law's Werner Institute for Negotiation and Dispute Resolution. His abstract:
BeatleMania! is a simulation for studying and experiencing online dispute resolution. Two parties to an eBay transaction gone awry, regarding the sale of Beatles memorabilia, set out to resolve their differences with the assistance of a third party mediator.
This simulation is structured to allow communication to be conducted though any online medium selected jointly by the parties and mediators. In other words, the storyline supports this mediation being conducted via email, videoconferencing or other media. teachers can instruct students regarding use of specific media, if they prefer to focus on a particular medium.
Also, I recently learned about equibbly which advertises:
Avoid the Nightmare of Going to Court
Have a former Court Judge decide your case online in under two weeks
Save time and money. Using eQuibbly is quicker, cheaper and more convenient than going to small claims court to settle your dispute.
Negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and other processes of dispute resolution.

Good Tips for Negotiators, Especially Lawyers
When leading negotiation scholars are concise, they come up with nuggets of wisdom. These are in the form of recipes for cooking up a deal and I particularly like:
Add in a small amount of doubt with each new proposal by the other party;
balance it with 1 part research and 1 part creative counter-offer.” Chris Honeyman
· Understand what would and could not be a mutually acceptable agreement
· Get to know and understand the other party
· Frame an opening statement
· Ask the other to reciprocate and listen to them carefully
· Ask each other lots of questions to assure understanding
· Work toward a common understanding
· Treat the other with respect and dignity
“Having those who matter present”. Sanda Kaufman
“Knowledge of your counterpart, available remedies, relevant
law and facts”. Nancy Welsh
“the heat is ultimately helpful, and you’re not the only one
feeling it.” Noam Ebner
“Add knowledge in increments (from listening to your
counterparty and also doing
your own background research) till the remaining ignorance
tastes acceptable.Add in a small amount of doubt with each new proposal by the other party;
balance it with 1 part research and 1 part creative counter-offer.” Chris Honeyman
and Roy Lewicki’s entire entry:
· Figure out what you want· Understand what would and could not be a mutually acceptable agreement
· Get to know and understand the other party
· Frame an opening statement
· Ask the other to reciprocate and listen to them carefully
· Ask each other lots of questions to assure understanding
· Work toward a common understanding
· Treat the other with respect and dignity
