Collaborative Learning Through Debates

Date: Sunday, May 8th, 2005 Time: 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Description:
This session is a hands-on workshop on the language of debates. Chantal Hemmi will show how the language of debates could be practiced using a game that incorporates topics of interest to students. After that, Hemmi will present research results from a small-scale interpretive research project that looked at what the students learned through the debate activity. The students in the research were part of two intermediate classes at Sophia University.
