Debating the Issues: The De Bono Method

Starting with a teacher’s introductory PowerPoint, “The teacher will take the role of someone with a ‘Green Hat’. They will choose (or ask the class to vote on) one of a range of ‘Discussion Points’ and each person in the class will be given a number between 2-5 (Red, Yellow, Black, White – each corresponding to a different way of thinking about the issue). The debate will then take place”.
