I'm not suggesting the debate, the discussion, be done in class....good teachers ask questions so students have things to think about....lots of work is done OUTSIDE of classrooms, because you don't teach anyone anything by giving them information rather than teaching them how to gain knowledge themselves.

Teaching our young WHAT to think is completely different from teaching them TO think. The former is called "indoctrination." It's unacceptable.
