Philosophical Chairs

Preparing for the Discussion Read the article provided about a given issue. Record notes from both sides of the issue on the Philosophical Chairs T-Chart. Decide whether you are FOR or AGAINST the issue.

The Set-up AGAINST FOR

Directions You must decide whether you are FOR or AGAINST the issue Sit on the side of the room designated FOR or AGAINST A neutral mediator stands in between the groups Calls on sides to speak Can limit time

Rules You must choose a side. You cannot be neutral. Listen while others speak. Wait for the mediator to call on you to speak. Use the notes from the Philosophical Chairs T-Chart to support your position. In one sentence, summarize the previous speaker’s argument before you respond.

Rules (Continued) If you have already spoken, wait for three other people on your side to speak before you speak again. (Three before me) Address ideas, not the person stating the ideas. Keep an open mind. You may move to the other side if you feel someone has made a good argument or your opinion swayed.

Debate Question Nature vs. Nurture Are we born this way, or do we behave according to our life experiences? Nature vs. Nurture
