sciZmic is developing a series of 'debates with a difference'.

A debate with a difference consists of a series of tasks to enable
young people to explore the topic. They are then encouraged to discuss
one issue surrounding the topic, before presenting a conclusion to other participants.

  Vaccinations: decisions at the sharp end
  Premature babies: decisions at the edge of life
  The stem cell debate
  The nuclear energy debate
  The nanotechnology debate
Other topics will include the forensic use of bio information and soundscapes.
