Practice+Debate+1

July 2 Practice Debate Instructions Instead of debating a full public forum round, we want you to have mini-debates or "extemporaneous debates" on important aspects of the topic. Your topic or resolution will be determined by the room you are debating in and correlate with the research group you are a part of.

The goal of this debate is not be entirely evidence driven, but instead logic/warrant driven (by evidence). You only have 2 hours to research for the topic. You also only have 20 minutes in the debate round to prove your side of the issue.

__FORMAT FOR DEBATE__ The debate should start with a coin flip (we can do this at the beginning of the research time), to decide which side of the topic you must defend.

The debate will last 24 minutes which includes prep time.

//Nothing has to be necessarily written out, BUT writing out your case with evidence will probably produce better success.//
