2. Ask students what they think of their schools, the courses, the program, etc. Encourage students to be critical but objective at the same time.
3. Tell students this is controversial topic “secondary schools should be co-educational” (Co-educational means having male and female students being taught together in the same school or college rather than separately) and they are going to prepare an argument for or against it. This is practice on preparing and gaining confidence, not necessarily about presenting the topic and debating.
