Session Details
About
Dialogue, not Debate: Participate in a 1-on-1 dialogue with another student from around the world to exchange ideas and cultural perspectives on important global topics. Participate in 3+ Dialogues and you can receive a Dialogue portfolio to submit with college applications.
In this conversation, you will exchange perspectives with another student from around the world about how to improve the economy. This will be an opportunity to explore how people’s national and cultural backgrounds influence their economic views. It will also be a chance to see how people’s core values influence their views on economic issues. You will explore questions like: Why is the cost of living so high and what can be done about it? What are the positive and negative aspects of economic regulation by the government? And what are the positive and negative aspects of corporations in society?
How it will work: At the start of the session, the session leader will go over some ground rules for the discussion, then all participants will be matched with a conversation partner. Everyone will switch to a new Zoom link to participate in their breakout discussion with their partner. You and your partner can discuss for as long as you like!
Next Steps: You will receive an email the day before your event with some session reminders. There is no preparation necessary for this session but you are welcome to review this discussion guide prior to the event. You and your discussion partner should use this guide help facilitate your conversation.
Post-Event Survey: Please make sure to complete the post-event survey when you finish the conversation so you can receive credit for your participation.
