Outline
|
|
Students will learn that controversy and disagreement can be constructive by developing a receptive mindset and follow the right approach. Students will learn to make better decisions based on good reasoning and consideration for other perspectives and views. Constructive controversy is a way of testing solutions and understanding various factors involved in decision making.
Constructive controversy involves deliberative discussions aimed at creative problem solving. It can be contrasted to debate (a competitive process where one view "wins" over the other).
Controversies are common in daily life. Disagreement is more likely to be constructive (as opposed to destructive) when they occur in a cooperative context. Students will learn to be skillful collaborators. By learning the norms of cooperation and the rules of rational argumentation, students will be able to develop necessary skills that include criticizing ideas not people, and being able to take another's perspective.
