I would pick the first student, who would get to choose how they wanted to argue, for or against. Then I'd just draw names or go around the room, randomly picking students to go next. They won't know if they have to argue for or against, so they have to be prepared for either, even if they don't like the position they're arguing.]]> 2022-06-27 21:39:11 UTC https://padlet.com/owens_k/99tpxjuth1q58m7d/wish/2231793008
