Editor's Notes
- #2 A few thoughts about this lesson:\n\nThe slides are self-explanatory in terms of how to do the discussion activity.\n\nThe groups of 3 only get five minutes to discuss each topic.  The spokesperson presentations should also be no more than five minutes so that way the whole discussion activity will be a total of  30 minutes.\n\nMove around to observe how the groups are interacting\n\nAllow silence to happen; you don't need to fill in gaps with talking in order to be effective\n\nsuggest different viewpoints where appropriate to get them thinking outside the box, don't offer your opinions about these issues.  This activity is for the students!\n\nManage student interruptions.  This is a lesson on mutual respect and collaboration so listen is a BIG DEAL.\n
