Critical Thinking Questions (8-10)
Answer Guidance (not fixed answers)
Increase complexity for advanced learners.
Audience: Secondary school students, Year 8–9 | Duration: 25 minutes | Format: Individual, in-class
There are no right answers here — but there are stronger and weaker ones. A strong answer makes a clear claim, gives a reason, and considers the other side. Write 3–5 sentences per question. If a question changes how you think partway through, say so.
1. Some countries have banned children under 16 from using social media. Is this protecting young people or limiting their freedom? Can it be both?
2. A 14-year-old and a 25-year-old see the same harmful content online. Should the platform treat them differently? On what basis?
3. If parents can already limit their child’s screen time at home, why might a government law still be necessary — or unnecessary?
4. Social media companies say they cannot reliably verify users’ ages without collecting more personal data. Does solving one problem here create another? Explain.
5. Who is most responsible for protecting young people online — the platform, the government, the parents, or the individual? Rank them and justify your order.
6. A teenager argues that social media taught her more about the world than school did. Does this change how you think about restricting access? Why or why not?
7. If an age limit is introduced and determined ineffective within two years, what would that tell us — about the law, about young people, or about social media itself?
8. Is there a difference between protecting someone and controlling them? Where is that line in this context?
Questions 1 and 8 are asking learners to hold two ideas in tension without collapsing one into the other — reward answers that resist the urge to pick a side too cleanly. Question 5 should produce varied rankings; what matters is whether the justification is consistent with the order given, not which answer is chosen. Questions 3 and 4 are testing whether learners can identify trade-offs, not just problems. Question 7 is the most demanding — strong answers will distinguish between a policy failing and a behaviour being resistant to policy, which are meaningfully different conclusions.
