It's always good to try to get students to speak to each other. You could pair them up and tell them to conduct interviews. Then ask them to interview each other to the class. Through these interviews they can exchange experiences and ideas that compel them and carry out meaningful discussions.

I suggest you try Compelling Conversations. It's a textbook designed to promote authentic classroom conversations. You might want to check out compellingconversatins.com to review sample chapters or buy PDF to the entire textbook.

Good luck!
