Moderator: Ally
Panelist: Carol, Hanna, Kofy, Finnian, and Lucus
Carol (agree): School uniform is official, so students can use it in place of wedding or funeral. And we can know which school students are.
Hanna (agree): We don't have to decide clothes every morning, so we can have more free time. And if we introduce the law, students unite and become closer with teachers and friends.
Kofy (agree): As Hanna said, we don't have to choose clothes every day, and students have conscious that they belong to the school. Moreover, students ccooperate with each other.
Finnian (disagree): If we set uniform, girls have to wear skirt, but she doesn't like skirt.
Lucus (disagree): If we introduce the law, both of school and students have to pay much money.
Moderator→agree: What do you think about Lucus's opinion?
Carol: We buy school uniform at first time, just once, so it is not expensive.
Hanna: The total cost of clothes every day is higher than uniform.
Lucus: School need money for uniforms every year.
Finnian: She wants to wash clothes every day, but it's difficult to wash uniform every day because of its material or the cost.
Moderator→disagree: What do you think about Hanna's opinion?
Finnian: We should choose clothes at last night.
Lucus: Now every students wear own clothes, so they don't think it's troublesome.
Moderator→agree: What do you think about Finnian's opinion?
Carol: Students can used to wear school uniform.
Finnian: She likes playing soccer in break time, but if she wear skirt, she have to change uniform.
Lucus→Carol: Students lost their personality, what do you think about the problem?
Carol: They can show their personality with their characters. Students study how to cooperate with each other with sense of solitality.

Comment
In this discussion, moderator worked very well. She questioned both of agree and disagree side. The meeting ran smoothly. I could understand well, but some people spoke in low voice, so I couldn't catch some words.
