What this debate covers
“Is Social Media Good for Society?” (“¿Son Buenas las Redes Sociales para la Sociedad?” in Spanish) is a two-sided Spanish debate on technology — both arguments written out in full. Two university students argue whether social media connects people or harms mental health and democracy.
Each side is written at three levels — A2 Foundations, B1 Intermediate and B2 Advanced — with a one-tap English translation, the argument vocabulary you need to reuse, and discussion questions to take into conversation.
