01

Take a closer look

A shared decision requires understandable information and a chance for everyone to contribute. A vote settles a question but does not replace every discussion. Minority rights still matter.

02

Now try it

  1. Collect three ideas for a fictional class activity and give one advantage and one drawback for each.
  2. Agree on a voting procedure. Explain how the interests of the group that loses the vote could still be considered.

03

Think it through

See a suggested answer

Not necessarily. The procedure, participation and protection of legitimate interests also need consideration.
