What is it?
Each week we would be presented by a selection of articles that we then wrote down our opinion on. Students were required to argue their stance using well thought out reasoning as well as respond to others' posts. There were also posts of the week and the students who wrote those posts would choose the articles for next week.
I really enjoyed this. I'm not someone who is usually comfortable in big group discussions so being able to write about my stance was comforting. It was interesting to see the whole range of topics that students chose from the air strikes in Syria, abortion, to education in the southern states there was a wide variety. It really opened my eyes and I appreciate that.
