I found our simulation bargaining experience to be pretty right on. I am on the teacher team and our first proposal had some great "ideas" but lacked language. We made those adjustments and both parties spent the majority of the time in caucus. I just recently finished participating in the negotiating of our certified and non-certified contracts. My experience was very similar. We spent the majority of our time in caucus. There were varying experiences within our simulation team, which was good. My group is working together well and are confident our proposal is fair and we will be "TA"ing on many items : )
I think a concern I have is the organization portion of this process in regards to note taking. During my internship experience the superintendent did it all, with some assistance from me. I'm in a small district. So, my mind is spinning on the thoughts of the many ways to organize the process. Having someone be the official note taker is ideal but may not be an option. It has been good to relate my course experience to my internship experience.
