"Is Change Accelerating?" debate

Sherry Atta
Sherry Atta over 7 years ago

My classes just concluded the "Is Change Accelerating?" debate in Lesson 9.1. I find it interesting how my 8th graders seem to grasp the question and content so easily while it takes me a while to process it each year :) The discussion they have in preparing for the debate is amazing! I highly recommend it. Have any of you had any successes or failures with this debate?

    Wow! That is brilliant. I have tried the activity with varied success. But one thing the activity never fails to do is fire up the students and get them thinking. Sherry Atta do you structure the discussions with your students before hand or do you just let it happen organically?
