The dreaded group discussion assignment.....

So, on the last lesson of the term I was thinking that we may have got off lightly but sadly .....not a chance!!  The previous week we had been put into small groups and asked to prepare a for or against argument on the subject of "Should the last known small pox samples be destroyed?" After researching I decided that my argument would be against the destruction for a variety of reasons.  In our group we had two individuals who argued for and myself and another girl who argued against.  This set the mood nicely as we had balanced sides and could back one another up where needed.

Overall the discussion went quite well, we were able to listen to one another and consider each point of view whilst also maintaining our own argument.  It was also a chance to hear about different articles the other girls had researched.

All that is left now is to write up a short essay on why I feel the way I do about the vaccine.
