Debating: The Fish Ball
Objectives
- To debate in an organised way
- To share the speech
- To create complex knowledge
Scenario
Duration: 1 hour
Ask a polemic question. Three persons (the fishes) are in the middle to discuss and debate a question. The others are around and they listen to the debate in silence.
Option 1: When one of the spectators wants to take part in the debate, he/she comes and takes the place of one of the fish (by giving him/her a sign, like a light tap on the shoulder).
Option 2: Each person (fish) in the center will circularly speak one after the other. When the first to talk finished speaking, he/she stays in the circle until the next person finishes what he/she wants to say, then leaves his/her place. In this way, a place becomes available at the end of each speech, thus inviting a new person to join the jar.
