Im doing a group debate project our group topic is: Telehealth Technology Threatens the Future of Special Education & ABA. Below are the requirments please summarize them in a short paragraph-

Online Ethical Debate Research Project Overview Strong ethical choices often begin with reaching out to a colleague and having honest discourse about everyday ethical challenges faced in the workplace, community, and society in general. You will be expected to participate in this group project to plan, implement and develop and conduct a live online ethical debate. The development of strong professional ethics often begins with collaborative discourse and/or discussions on different viewpoints among professionals about issues in the workplace, community, and society in general. The Online Ethical Debate Research Project is intended to facilitate you acquiring critical thinking, analytic, and communication skills. In addition to enhancing your conceptual understanding of the professional and ethical compliance codes, devising defensible arguments will also improve your ability to evaluate various points of view as it relates to professional and ethical issues in ABA. This assignment is also an opportunity to explore issues of diversity and cultural competence as they relate to the implementation of ABA. All students are expected to: Work in a group Plan and organize a debate that will be shared with the rest of the class Participate in an online videotaped ethical debate What should you know and be able to do? 1. Examine the research literature to better grasp the issue and the important relevant points. 2. Describe ideas from various perspectives and identify points of agreement and points of disagreement. 3. Use empirical evidence and course material to formulate arguments to support or oppose a particular position. 4. Categorize research findings to differentiate relevant issues in order to develop multiple conclusions, causes, motives, and generalizations. 5. Collaborate with group members to develop 30-45 minute live online debate that argues multiple sides of the issue, present arguments and evidence for or against, considers the ethical compliance codes to compare and contrast ideas, and solutions. 6. Post your debate on BB to have your peers review and engage in the topic.

My grpup decided on informal debate. Please summarize the key components of this in a paragraph-

Informal Debates When debating you want to say what needs to be said as concisely as possible. All members should help each other. Depending on the issue, some roles are easier to play than others. This does not mean that statements need to be written out completely. Your statements should be informal and conversational. Roles in this debate: You can have more than one person assigned to a role. For example, you may have two summarizers who talk at different parts of the debate. These roles are recommendations and groups are encouraged to be creative in how they want to present their debates. 1. Introducer: the introducer is the leader and organizer of the group. The introducer's primary responsibility is to make sure progress is being made by each member on the objective. The introducer also states the point-counterpoint in general, using his or her own words, and gives a "lead-in" for the point-counterpoint by describing the topic in the text to which this particular issue is relevant. 2. Summarizer: the summarizer describes the specific point or counterpoint to which he or she has been assigned. The summarizer may give a brief statement on the background of the specific controversy and any other important information needed to understand the point/counterpoint. 3. Illustrator: the illustrator has the important responsibility of making the point-counterpoint relevant to the other students through examples, graphs, or in-class "experiments." How is the point/counterpoint important to the people in the class and what is a good way of illustrating the point? 4. Researcher: the researcher Reports any studies having some bearing on the particular side of the point-counterpoint to which he or she has been assigned. Some description of the research is appropriate, but mainly the studies' findings and conclusions should be presented. The researcher should also note important limitations or criticisms of the research. 5. Fielders: The fielders Identifies potential questions that would be asked and creates a frequently asked Q & A presentation to end the debate. Any questions regarding the groups signed point-counterpoint or the members' presentations. Fielders are also responsible for any important material omitted by a group member.

Lastyly, the debate is happening within the group itself therefore. we have to choose a pro or con side. I'm not sure which side i should be on when it comes to if Telehealth Technology Threatens the Future of Special Education & ABA, Can you help me decide? based on research that i could find and used against my opponents which would be the best side? Also when it comes to jobs? Which role would the best, something that doesn't require to much but obviously helps the group?
