  Case: Very Outspoken
While discussing different cultures and their norms, I had a student who got very offensive when the Muslim culture came up to discuss. I tried to control the situation and keep it civilized and not meant to attack any other races. This particular student got in a very heated discussion with another and stormed out. What should I do in the future to avoid a situation like this one?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe environment means everything when discussing sensitive topics such as culture, religion or even politics. It is the teachers responsibility to set the tone at the beginning of the discussion that every individual is entitled to their personal beliefs and that it will not be tolerated for any student to make negative comments towards anyone's personal beliefs. In addition, it is also essential for the teacher to continuously monitor the discussion being held. If the teacher identifies the slightest hint of another student negatively commenting on another students beliefs that teacher needs to immediately end ask that student to stop with the comments or depending on the severity immediately exit that student from the discussion.
