TIP: Can you think of a possible solution for this social discussion??
Mention that as well. 

Conclude your presentation with explaining how you worked as a team and what new things you have learned during the research. 
At the end ask the class to vote and choose the side!

Checklist: Are all the questions answered?
in pairs you do not have to agree!!
- write a statement about your topic. 
For example: 
Phones should be banned in schools!
Then you present your opinions on it (see next slide!)



At the end of the presentation you talk about: 
- What was your opinion from the start?
- Which articles did you read, what did you read about?
- Which articles convinced you to choose for that particular side?
- Did your opinion change throughout the research? 
If yes, what made you change your mind; 
if not? which sources even more deeply confirmed your initial opinion on it?
- Talk about how you and your pair came to the conclusion together? Were you on the same page or were your opinions different? Did one persuade the other? 
Talk about it, give examples...
-What is a possible solution for a particular issue
