- I changed the assessment into "debate" and the assessment tools into "rubrics" . Replacing it with debate in the belief that it will foster greater interpersonal interaction among the students. Debate
provides a chance to improve student engagement while also fostering critical thinking and presentation abilities.

interested in their studies.
- 2. I just add the learning outcomes number 6 and added an assignment. The main goal of giving students assignments is to assess their comprehension of a certain topic or subject. If they
understood the topic and if they learned something.
