Critique Debating Skills of Presidential Candidates 
Analyze a debate between the presidential candidates. Prior to an upcoming presidential debate, work with students on the concept of debating. It is vital to understand that a debate is a formalized argument in which participants do not yell at one another to be heard the loudest and the longest. Next, assign an at-home viewing of a presidential debate. (Or, prepare a taped segment for students to view in class.)
