[Online/English] Current Affairs Discussion ā Beyond Small Talk
Details
š Ready to think out loud with us?
This session, we're diving into current affairs ā the kind of topics that make you go "hmm" and see things from angles you hadn't considered.
Example Topics:
- Australia's social media ban for under-16s: Protection or overreach?
- AI deepfakes and harmful content: Where's the line between free speech and public safety?
(We'll steer clear of politically sensitive territory ā this is about curious conversation, not debate club.)
š” What to expect:
- A hosted, structured discussion (not just "go chat!")
- Diverse perspectives from people around the world
- A chance to share your thinking and hear how others see the same issue differently
š This event is perfect if you:
- Enjoy exploring ideas and learning something new
- Appreciate diverse opinions ā even ones you disagree with
- Meaningful conversation beyond surface-level chat
š¤ This might not be the best fit if you:
- Are mainly looking "only" for English practice without interest in the discussion itself
- Find it frustrating when others disagree with you
- Expect others to teach you rather than learning together
Logistics: š Online via Zoom š„ Camera on, please ā we like seeing faces! š§ No prep needed. Just show up curious.
One ask: Please respect everyone's time ā avoid no-shows or last-minute cancellations.
And of course, kindness is the rule. š
See you there!
