The Power of Debate

 * Each class will select a topic of their choice. They will form a question that can be answered yes or no.

i.e. Should all HPS students wear school uniforms - yes or no? Should cell phones & mp3 players be allowed in school - yes or no? Should Arizona be allowed to have their immigration law?


 * Students will then create and download a Voters Opinion poll widget on this wiki for all to vote on.


 * Teams within each class will then be created to research and document opinions and facts, one to support, one to oppose.


 * Teams will be given 10 minutes each, to present their information and try to pursuade people to agree with them.


 * Students will then be asked to vote a second time, to determine if their views have changed.
