This research and deliberation activity encourages students to look at the issue of gun control from different points of view. Then, through deliberation, they will find political measures to address this issue. In any deliberation activity, compromise and listening will play a key role in finding common ground. This lesson is designed to promote an atmosphere of mutual respect for differing points of view on controversial issues. This resource was developed as part of The Exchange: A Marketplace of Student Ideas, the National Constitution Center;s nationwide conversation series on current constitutional issues. Less
