Argumentation & Rebuttals
One of the most common mistakes in debate is for a debater to throw arguments but forget to link it to the relevance of the debate.
Intermediate Debate training sessions focuses on exactly that - to help participants form and clearly weigh arguments and rebuttals to prove their side deserves the trophy.
We combine training with discussions about strategy.
Depending on which team is assigned, participants will have to make decisions about which arguments to win and which to lose if they want to win the top spot. We teach participants how to evaluate tradeoffs and pick the smarter strategy.
