Here are the two arguments you will be debating: Argument A: There is a need for students to understand and be able to construct geometric figures using a compass and straightedge. Argument B: There is no need for students to use a compass and straightedge, and all geometric constructions should be done using a drawing program. There are two opposing arguments listed above. You need to choose which one you will support as your argument. Formulating an argument takes research and time to get yourself to the point where you can defend your position thoroughly.
