· Directions—This activity focuses on generating basic arguments, actively listening to arguments, and paraphrasing. First, divide the participants into smaller groups of 12-15 and have the members of the group stand and form a circle. Announce one of the topics (see list below), and start the activity by first going clockwise around the circle (counterclockwise can be used for later rounds). The first participant has to “agree” with the statement and give a reason why. The next participant has to paraphrase the statement by the first participant and then “disagree” with the statement and give a reason why. The third participant has to paraprase the statement by second participant and then “agree” with the statement and give a new reason why. This order continues (participants will paraphrase the statement by the person who immediately preceeded them and then provide their own unique statement) until everyone in the circle has had a chance to participate, and those who are later in the circle should come up with new reasons to “agree” or “disagree.” Facilitators should start in a new position in the circle with each new topic to ensure that everyone in the group has the challenge of coming up with a new reason later in the round. In later rounds, the activity can also be changed to focus more on “refutation” (where the first speaker has to agree, and the second speaker has to specifically refute the first speaker’s reason for agreeing).
