Choose two very important inventions or social movements and have debates on which is of greater historical significance and why?

For instance: “Which invention/ social movement had, and continues to have, the greatest impact on western society?”

a) the printing press, or b) the telephone.

Or a) the Reformation, or b) Marxism.

These kinds of questions are excellent for debates. You can reword each to say “American society” or “Canadian society”, plus it requires a comprehensive argument. There are many, many aspects in which to comment: cultural, environmental, economic, political, etc.

I have used this format before when I taught Grade 9 and 10 Social Studies and English with success.

Ask them about Pangaea? What is it? Also ask how we ended up with our current global continental set-up.
