The activity involves students creating an argumentative speech to defend a hot-take assertion chosen from a list provided by the instructor. In small groups, students will craft an argument supporting their hot-take assertion and present it to the class. During debrief, students will assess the strength of arguments and how to persuade audiences better for their assignment.
