Q: How do you take your coffee?
A: Seriously!
Encourage a classroom discussion. What does the coffee symbolize? What is the inherent flaw in this scenario? Students may have coffee-related experiences of their own, or similar anecdotes, to share or discuss. Be sure to engage each student with firm eye contact and a welcoming tone of voice.
