Abstract
Some topics are controversial and, as a consequence, difficult to teach. I describe a cooperative teaching and learning strategy that combines the “Jigsaw method” with the “Six thinking hats” of de Bono. This allows students to work together in expert groups while investigating the topic from different perspectives. Students then provide feedback to each other, where all perspectives are shared in the home group.
