My Nonprofit Reviews

I am a high school history teacher in Massachusetts who has gotten a lot of mileage out of ProCon.org. Right now I am working at an alternative high school whic has very low(no) funding. I utilize ProCon to give the students understanding of both sides of controversial issues and even to expose them to issues which they did not realize were controversial...like milk. I assign them to summarize each argument in one sentence and then write an opinion using what they learned reading about the issue. At times I've assigned students to select an issue they personally want to learn about and write an essay explaining their interest and what they learned from reading the ProCon outline.
