raise or raised

The explorations also provided them opportunities to establish important discoveries and raise some important questions and points for discussion in class

someone insisted that I change raise to raised. Isn't this part of my prepositional phrase?

Anonymous Isn't this part of my prepositional phrase? The only prepositional phrases in your sentence are "for discussion" and "in class". You mean that you intend 'raise' to go with the infinitive particle "to": to 1.
