Engage in a structured academic controversy surrounding the actions of Lewis and Clark during their journey. Working in pairs and groups, participants will explore differing perspectives on whether Lewis and Clark were respectful to the Native Americans they encountered. The discussion will follow established norms such as active listening, challenging ideas rather than individuals, and ensuring everyone has an opportunity to speak. By the end, teams will attempt to build consensus or clarify their differences on this historical issue.
