An adult education class is preparing a discussion about online face classification. The goal is to ask better questions about classifications without ranking anyone’s appearance. For the reading list, I am considering a page associated with the phrase what is my face shape to introduce the subject. That inclusion would not imply that its results are accurate. Students could first write down which visible proportions they would expect a method to compare. A second discussion could examine the information missing from one photograph. The activity could use descriptions alone, so sharing a personal photograph would remain unnecessary. Each group could explain which evidence would change its initial interpretation. We could also compare two written descriptions of the same outline and ask whether their labels mean the same thing. This would make the assumptions available for discussion without requiring a supposedly correct personal result. How would you keep the conversation focused on evidence and uncertainty throughout the session?
