This forum carries ongoing updates on the progress of Project LISTEN and what we're learning from it. We would love any reactions, feedback, ideas, etc on what you see going on; simply post them here in the forum.
Project LISTEN seeks to pro-actively engage with opposing viewpoints in somewhat structured settings across multiple media types with the objectives to:
- Primarily: understand rationales supporting alternate viewpoints.
- Learn communication styles used in these types of conversations and their associated characteristics
- Test various methods of promoting productive exchange of ideas, including media-related differences (eg. written, audio, video, in-person)
