This is the thread to place the links for your articles that we are going to discuss each week. The articles should be posted before the weekend so that everyone has a few days to read, think about and prepare for discussion of the article. You can choose any type of article that you want on any subject. As with last year enter the session with open minds and discuss as we would between friends .

Something I didn't ask but I think the person who posts the article should include a short vocabulary list of difficult/unusual or important words found within the article.

First week it's Imane, Hanae and Lucas.

These sessions depend on you. Both the leaders who choose the articles and those of you who are reading them. If you want to get the most out of your English lessons then you need to put the effort and preparation into them. I know you will.

Hi everyone, here is the link of the article to read : 
- https://www.amnesty.org/en/what-we-do/arms-control/gun-violence/

It's very long so you don't have to remember every detail and you can stop reading at "gun violence in the USA". My questions will mainly be about gun/arm control. So prepare your opinions about gun control and let's create a very problematic debate Twisted Evil

Have a great weekend.

Group 1 Articles for discussion Empty Censorship on social media

Post by Hanae Khallouk Temsamani Sat Sep 24, 2022 12:44 am

Hiiii, I hope you're doing good !

I tried so hard to find an interesting subject, and i thought it might be engaging if I choose a topic related to something we experience everyday : Censorship on social media Question

Here is the link :
https://www.debatingeurope.eu/2021/09/07/do-social-media-bans-violate-free-speech/#.Yy4v1XZBy3A

Do social media bans violate free speech? Or are they necessary to create a safe online environment? How can we balance freedom of expression and freedom from harm online? Do you feel censored online? Let us know your thoughts Wednesday Smile

Hi, sorry for the late, I’ve been busy with work this weekend !

For the discussion of the week, I picked a short though interesting video about video game addictions (2:30 min). I thought it could be great debating about this topic. https://youtu.be/jDQcv4rcbK4
Hopefully, you can prepare the debate in time, it’s quite short so that should be okay and I’m obviously looking forward to hearing your opinions about the video !

See you tomorrow ! Night night ! Very Happy

Lucas

Hey guys, let's talk about sex !
I know this subject can be a little touchy for some people so I want to be clear that I'm not waiting for you to talk about your sexual life and preferences, no one will leave the classroom with more traumas lol. The conversation will stay very general, I really want to turn the conversation around how sex is viewed by society nowadays and I want your opinion on that.
Reading my article is a plus if you want an overview of what we're going to talk about during class, but it's actually not really necessary. All I want you to think about is the place of sex in society, the relation between sex and feminism, the hook-up culture and whatever crosses your mind ! no tabou les loulous
here is the link : https://i-d.vice.com/en/article/xgygnz/sex-recession-2022

See you !

It looks like Nouhaila has disappeared. She hasn't answered my emails nor posted here. Here is a (long) article about Gender that I'd like the 3rd group to discuss if Nouhaila doesn't post. Please read it and think about the ideas behind it so that you can participate actively in discussion. Thanks.

Hello lovely groupe ! As a big fan for Quentin Tarantino, the american movie director and the godfather of violence in cinema , I’d like to talk about how violence in movies and video games may affect our daily life as adults and kids’ life to. Is there a real impact or its just a piece of art and we cant blame the creators ? Here, maybe i’ll play the devil’s avocat ! Twisted Evil

Here are some movies and games that match our topic:

Kill Bill \ Reservoir Dogs\ Taxi Driver \ Inglorious Bastards \ GTA \ BULLY \ RDR2

And here’s the article :
