Critical thinking

In class we have just started spending some time debating some topics and developing the students ability to form and defend their opinions. We want students to think outside the box, think about causes and consequences of actions, and to develop an understanding of issues our society faces. We have looked at subjects such as; pay rates in jobs (Should professional athletes get paid the same as scientists? What should determine how much someone gets paid?), Do we need war to create peace? How would our world be different if all vehicles flew? What options are there for dealing with terrorists? We looked at the following video and discussed how food is processed and created and how our food might look like in the future.


Parents, if you have any issues you think would be good for us to explore, pop them in the comments section.
