Students will collaborate in groups to identify and articulate a compelling and arguable question regarding the justification and impact of revolutions, taking initial positions informed by a diverse set of historical sources and perspectives.

Students will analyze historical documents and multimedia sources to evaluate the justification and impact of the American, French, and Haitian revolutions, collaborating in groups to develop evidence-based claims for peer feedback and reflection.

Students will construct evidence-based arguments by synthesizing research, collaboratively developing claims, refining arguments through peer feedback workshops, and practicing clear and empathetic communication to effectively present their perspectives on the justification and impact of revolutions.

Students will engage in a public 'Revolutionary Debate' where they confidently present and defend their argument concerning the justification and impact of a revolution, utilizing evidence-supported claims in front of classmates and invited guests, followed by a Q&A session to address counterarguments and critique their reasoning.
