    Take a Stand
    On your own TAKE A STAND
    What do you think? Explain your perspective.

    As a group STAND BACK


    Where do your classmates stand? Listen to their perspectives.

    On your own LOOK AGAIN


    Look again at your original response. What had you not considered that other people brought up?
    (Maybe you changed your mind, maybe you didn't -- that's OK! Either way, you heard other views.
    How has your thinking shifted after hearing your classmates' perspectives, even if you haven't
    changed your mind?)

    As a group LOOK BEYOND


    Look beyond this specific case. How does this dilemma remind you of other situations we've
    explored in class or that you've seen, heard about, or experienced?
