Philosophical ChairsRules of Engagement • Be sure you understand the central thesis before the discussion begins. Decide which section to stand in. • Listen carefully when others speak and seek to understand their arguments even if you don’t agree. • Wait for the mediator to recognize you before you speak; only one person speaks at a time. • You must first summarize briefly the previous speaker’s argument before you make your response.
Philosophical ChairsRules of Engagement (cont’d) • If you have spoken for your side, you must wait until three other people on your side speak before you speak again. • Be sure that when you speak, you address the ideas, not the person stating them. • Keep an open mind and move to the other side or the undecided section if you feel that someone made a good argument or your opinion is swayed. • Support the mediator by maintaining order and helping the discussion to progress.
Philosophical Chairs Discussion Thesis: Chimpanzees should be used for medical testing research. For homework you were to: • Decide your Opinion: Based on your reading of the article, decide whether you AGREE or DISAGREE with the above statement. • Find 3 pieces of Evidence: Then support your Opinion with at least 3 pieces of Evidence referenced from the article. • You may also find other pieces of evidence other than the article.
Envi. Sci. Pre-Assessment • Use a pencil and erase clearly. • Fill in your Student ID and Full Heading. • Do the best that you can. Work silently and do YOUR OWN work. I only want to know what YOU know (not what your friend knows). When Finished: • Raise your hand so I can collect your test. • Work on Homework: • Philosophical Chairs Written Evaluation • Learning Log (on back of Bell Ringer)
