How to conduct a Civil Dialogue

1. Rank your belief from Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree. 2. Teacher selects 1 person to represent each belief. 3. The teacher presents the topic for the dialogue. 4. The 5 students selected will engage in conversation for 10 minutes while the rest of the room writes down thoughts and ideas. 5.
