Gold fever is not a unique situation. The fever runs hot while the perception of making it big runs wild. Taming the wildness and countering the cheats and scams has become more difficult. How can we find the balance is the challenge of this book.

As students read the story, they will discover the arguments to build on. Through research, they discover new information to build their argument on. Challenging the opposition they develop confidence to speak their mind with clarity. Having gained a new level of confidence motivation to explore new ideas, read more critically, and engage in argument are the positive outcomes.

Flipped learning is on the rise in education. This module is designed for that specific learning model. Students have access to videos to watch at home or online. quizzes are interactive and available online. Debate and critical thinking are at the center of the course. It is easy to teach when students have made a bit of an effort to prepare. Preparing at home with short videos makes class time more efficient. Setting the debate as the end activity develops both individual and groups dynamics to grow. A teacher's version is available to make the choice of topic easier to fit different interests.

Dr. Paul R. Friesen has been in the ESL field for over 20 years. He published his first ESL book in 2010, Making Conversation Work For You. He has also written papers on ideas like the 7AIQ method of engaging in dialogue with better results. He is currently developing the formula 1+3+2+Q which expands on that theory.
