Analyze a case in which two or more texts provide conflicting information on the same topic and identify where the texts disagree on matters of fact or interpretation.

When it comes to things like scientific debates or war, people tend to disagree on the details or the interpretations of the details. With this Common Core Standard, it's the student's job to figure out where authors disagree and why the might disagree. For example, how many licks does it take to get the the center of a Tootsie pop? The world may never know, but we think it's definitely more than three and less than ten thousand. (According to "science," it all depends on how you lick it.)
