Students can’t ask for much more fun than skateboarding during class time. With some additional concept learning, that kind of fun can be incorporated into a debate that encourages students to practice scientific argumentation. With a debate comes the opportunity to include a social or moral dilemma and have students use argumentation techniques as well as science to justify a position. This engaging hands-on activity with a skateboard introduces the scientific knowledge that will be used for a later debate about speed limits.
