Project 3 - Debates
For the third project of the year, Dajali Wilson and I conducted a project that was half parter work and half solo work. We choose three controversial topics that are relevant in todays day and age. The topics we choose were, teachers carrying weapons, legalizing marijuana, and wether or not abortion should be legal. After choosing our topics we conducted a personal debate and a class debate, and created propaganda posters displaying our stands on each topic.
Honors English 4: For the English portion of this project Dajali and I held a class debate on the three controversial topics we choose; teachers carrying weapons, legalizing marijuiana, and wether or not abortion should be legal. We began this project with days of research. Research played one the largest roles on this project. We then created a sign up paper for any student in our classes that wanted to participate in our debate. The turn out was great, we ended up getting about 17 students to participate. To host the debate, we had the classroom divided into 2 sections and the students sit on the side which they wanted to debate. Everyone was very engaged and active throughout the debate.
Honors Portfolio: For the art portion of this project Dajali and I each created two propaganda posters for each topic. We began by conducting research on how to create propaganda. Then we used a software called 'Pages' to create our posters.
