Value Line

Value Line

1. Present students with an issue or topic.
2. Ask students to position themselves in a physical line from those who "strongly agree" to those who "strongly disagree" in response to the topic.
3. Form groups by selecting students from differing perspectives to join together (choose students from each end and the middle of the value line).
4. Provide time for group members to share their reasons for their perspective.
5. If desired, groups may agree on a position prior to positioning themselves on the value line. After groups arrange themselves on the value line, groups are randomly selected to share the reasons for their position.
