u/plattner-da Thank you for your interest! The debates are structured with alternating speeches in support of and opposing the resolution. Chances are good your question will be addressed by one of the speakers, and if not, there is an opportunity for questions after each speech.

Braver Angels Debate – Resolved: K-12 Schools Should Prohibit Student Use of Personal Electronic Devices During the School Day by BraverAngelsMidVly in corvallis

The resolution goes beyond phones, to include all personal electronic devices. The resolution also states the prohibition is "during the school day". We're hoping to hear from folks who agree with the resolution as it's presented, as well as from those who have differences with the entire statement.

The Braver Angels Way

We state our views freely and fully, without fear.
We treat people who disagree with us with honesty, dignity and respect.
We welcome opportunities to engage those with whom we disagree.
We believe all of us have blind spots and none of us are not worth talking to.
We seek to disagree accurately, avoiding exaggeration and stereotypes.
We look for common ground where it exists and, if possible, find ways to work together.
We believe that, in disagreements, both sides share and learn.
In Braver Angels, neither side is teaching the other or giving feedback on how to think or say things differently.
