    2. Students comment on the different questions with
    compromise. How does that compromise incorporate both
    sides? Ask the students to think if both sides are happy?

    of compromise due to religion, gender, sexual orientation,
    race, or ethnicity

    compromise for the major news stories. Students take into
    account the difference on both sides.

    corporal punishment in a New Orleans school and suggest a
    compromise that will make both sides happy.
