How Are You Being Judged for Final Debates?

FYI

One the Final Debate ballots, the following questions are asked:

1. How did the debators support their arguments with facts, statistics and/or expert opinion?
2. Describe the effectiveness and organization of the debaters' delivery.
3. Describe how the debaters counter and/or clash with each other.
4. How effective were the debaters during cross-examination?

Each question will be rated on a 25 point scale (100 points possible). Everyone gets a score for one debate. If a person loses in his/her first debate, then the person will complete at least three ballots of other debates, completing comments on both debaters.

  2. Really...difficult...to understand message...text....like jibberish.

    Actually, the students are the ones who call for recess and vote on it. Democracy in action! People will vote for something that sounds fun but may be really bad in the long run.
