      I like the emphasis on choosing a topic that students know little about -- good for stretching students out of their comfort zones.
  • encourage students to pick one they know little about or that is particularly relevant to current events (e.g., racial justice, immigrants' rights, or free speech)

      These cases would be good to use in modeling the activity for students.
