Moreover, Mediation Process Evaluation Mediator Form (MPEMF) is applied to mediators and Mediation Process Evaluation Target Form (MPETF) is applied to the targets. The efficiency of the peer mediation education program is tested by using the results of MPEOF, MPEMF, MPETF and the results of the interviews with the mediators and the targets. The results of the research shows that the mediators who have educated on peer mediation, apply mediation levels correctly and they can solve the peer conflicts. These results are discussed and taken as sufficient evidents on the usefulness and effectiveness of the peer mediation education program.
