Learning Team
Debate Learning Teams are divided into two opposing sides, one side supporting a predetermined issue and the other opposing it. The facilitator will divide teams into groups and assign the sides.

Construct an 8- to 10-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation with speaker’s notes to support your group’s side.
Post your presentation in the Main forum by Day Five under the appropriate thread.
Review all presentations as they are posted.
Begin debating after reviewing all presentations.

Remember that each team member must post at least two points to support his or her side to earn full points. Sun May 15th,2011 10

Individual
Weekly Reflection Each week in this course, you will engage your thoughts and abilities as a scholar, a practitioner, and a leader to advance your knowledge and personal academic agenda. These weekly reflections help you position yourself as a reflexive thinking scholar, practitioner, and leader. Consider saving these weekly statements, which serve as a critical reflection upon your growth as a scholar, practitioner, and leader throughout the program.

Create a reflective and applied statement describing how the week’s learning has affected your thought processes, development, and professional disposition. This statement should reflect your personal learning process—challenges, moments of discovery, life experiences, and interactions. You may also include questions for the course facilitator regarding material that may still be unclear in your reflection. Ideally, you will use these reflections throughout the course and the program to document your development as a scholar, practitioner, and leader, and to reflect critically on the changes that occur during this process.

Format any citations and references in your reflective statement consistent with APA guidelines.

Reply to the thread designated for Weekly Reflections, and post your response in the body of the post, not as an attachment. Mon May 16th, 2011 1
