When The Conversation Dried Up And/Or Became Unproductive?

1.Was there a time when the conversation dried up and /or became unproductive? What could have been done to deal with this problem? Yes, during the seminar sometimes the conversation dried up and become unproductive. For example, when take turns to read our thesis statement, Connie was the last one and after she finished, it seems no one was going to pick up to explain their reasons or ask a question. Luckily Connie was prepared and she quickly ask her question. Sometimes everyone sticked to one aspect and when we used up all our sources the silence made us become awkward. We did not know what else to say so we just look at each other. I think when the conversation dried up, asking a new question can help make it more productive. Also I think we can bring the DBQ question back and talk about our opinions and the impacts of the crusades.

In the beginning I just thought about the surface of it. I totally disagree that it is justified because thousands of people were killed and I think nothing is much more important than our lives. However some people said yes because the crusaders choose their own beliefs and follow their beliefs. They were prepared to die to make their country and religion better. Yes I am convinced and changed my mind about this
