Well done to those who braved the withering stares of a trio of brutal judges to complete their first debate. Everyone showed some promise. Remember, no one, not even Abraham Lincoln himself, was a good debater to begin with. Practice, thinking and preparation will help you improve at anything. Keep at it.
There’s an IDEA tournament coming up next weekend if anyone’s interested – it’s a good chance to test your skills, and find out where you need to improve. See me for details.
Also below is a type of flow sheet that we can trial in future training debates.
