Remember, debaters need to continue researching during these two weeks when reading is canceled due to the WASL. You should have at least 10 sheets (pieces of evidence).
At least 5 of them should relate to the legal issues surrounding single sex schools. I recommend at least one on the fourteenth amendment, and several about court cases such as Brown v Board of Education and the Virginia Military Institute case.
At least 5 should be articles and studies about the effects on achievement. Try to find research, not just opinion. Although opinion articles can help you think of new ideas, you will need to get actual evidence. You want to know the important studies that have examined this question. Do boys and or girls have higher scores on assessments (or other ways to show achievement such as grades) when they are in single sex schools??
If you need help, email me at treevaughn@gmail.com. Also, if you find a site you want to share with the group, let me know and I will add it to the links on this blog. Thanks to Casey and Caytlyn for sending in some links to share!!!
