Week 1- The Wall, Post 1

WHAT IS THIS? 

Great question, check out this website and/or little video Links to an external site. to learn more about it.

So here is the deal:  

• Each week, you are expected to respond directly to the new question on "The Wall". In other words, for each new question, you must "JOIN THE DEBATE" and then "ADD A NEW OPINION"
• You will also need to debate other Wall users and respond to users who debate you (see "Week 1- The Wall, Post 2" & "Week 1- The Wall, Post 3").

Doing so has multiple benefits: 

• Practicing the skill of civil debate.
• Enhancing your understanding on the controversial issue being discussed.
• Increasing your political attentiveness.
• Engaging with others in meaningful discussion using an innovative technology.

So here's what you need to do:

• Go to www.civildebatewall.com Links to an external site.
  
• Click "CREATE ACCOUNT" in the upper right-hand corner
  
• Create an account, complete with a picture of your beautiful face.
  
• Read the question and then click through some of the responses to get a feel for what people are saying about it. Maybe do a little research on the topic? Just a suggestion.
  
• Click on "JOIN THE DEBATE"
• Click on "ADD A NEW OPINION"
• Click on "YES" or "NO" depending on your opinion
• Enter your 140-character or less response
• Click on "NEXT"

Woo hoo! You did it! But you're not done yet. Here's what you need to do in order to get credit for your post:

• Take a screenshot Links to an external site. of your post and then upload it here! See example below.

Now you're done! Congratulations.
