Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

Hello people, I'm Xiaowei from 2E3 :DI think classroom debating is more interesting as compared to online debating as the atmostphere of classroom debating is much more dense than online debating. Online debating are opinions voiced out by netizens behind the screen and we can't see how the people feel thus we are not able to feel how they feel.Therefore I think classroom debating is much more interesting than online debating as we are able to feel the atmostphere of the debate.

Hello, Amanda from 2e3 here.I totally agree with you!During classroom debating we are able to feel the dense atmostphere of the debate but in online debate we cant. I also agree with you that we are not able to see the person feel and look in online debates.

Camille from 2E3 :DI agree with your statement. I think that the intensity of classroom debates is a whole lot better than facing a screen where we can't feel anything!
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

Lol, I'm Camille from 2E3 :DI disagree that online debating is more intersting than classroom debating as i feel that debates should be conveyed through expressions and feelings. It is also more interesting compared to online debating as during online debating, all we face is a screen compared to classroom debating where we face the different expressions and tones of people. Therefore, i strongly feel that classroom debates are more interesting than online debates.

Jasper from 2E3.I think that online debate is interesting but classroom debate is more interesting as it gives us a chance to speak infront of the class and would train our public speaking ability.Therefore I disagree.
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

I do not agree that online debating is more interesting than classroom debating because the impact created by online debating is small compared to classroom debating. In a classroom debate, people are able to insert stress and emphasis on words whereas for an online debate, people can only make do with capitalising the words. With that, there is a limit of being able to express and deliver a stand. In that aspect, a classroom debate is definitely more interesting.
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.

i do not agree that online debating is more fun than class debating. As we will not get to see each other expression and it will be hard to figure out what was the actual feeling and expression of the person when he or she was debating it online. Online we will tend to misunderstand the other party emotion as we cant see their expression. Thus, i think class debating is more fun. Especially during class debating we can use actions and expression on face to show and persuade the person better.

Hi hi Yong Ming here...:) Well I think that online debate is quite interesting as it gives us a brief introduction to the IT world and its many other facilities. However, I personally feel that online debate will make many of us more dependent on the on-the-spot-informations as we will be finding informations on the net while debating. While we have online debate, we will realise that through hard work and perserverence, we will be able to find the information we need, regardless of using the net or physical books. We could also experience the reallife forms of debate when we have classroom debates and it can also give us a chanceto speak in front of everyone, training our public speaking ability.It will also let us experience first-hand of the heat that is involved in the usual debates and while through the online debate, everything is cold as you are unable to see how heated is the argument, unless your opponent types "!!!!" in his argument.Therefor, I believe that through classroom debates, we will be able experience what we can't experience what we have during classroom debates. I therefore believe that the motion must fall.

I am hwee ping from 2e3.I do not agree that online debating is more intersting than classroom debating. During online debating, we could not get immediate response from the oppenent team and we have to wait for responses. This is not as efficient as classroom debating whereby imeediate responses are given.Furthermore, when having a classroom debating, there is an additional tension among the competitors and the audience. overall, i think that classroom debating is more intersting than online one as it involve more interactions.
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

I hold differing opinion towards people who feel that debating online is more interesting. In our classrooms, we can express our feelings, our emotions, our unhappiness, anger, remorse, feeling, concern, sentiment over any subjects.Arguing physically works more efficiently, as there is no need to hide behind a screen while you type your frame of mind out.Therefore, i dees-er-grwee.

Jerome from 2e3,I do not agree fully to this statement. Debating, in definition, is simply about a discussion, of a public topic, that involves opposing view. A debate can be carried out both online and in real life depending on one's preference, but i'm almost certain most people would prefer to do it online. Online debating allows the debator more time to think of the question and the answers are more prone to be more detailed and articulate thus, better answer can be found as more thoughts have been put into them.Debating in real life tests the debator's thinking skills for there is a time limit and the debates tend to be more interesting for it allows for the debator's style to bring out his/her debate - his expression, his tone, his articulation. The views can indeed be as detailed as its counterpart but this hardly is the case.I've chosen debating in real life over online debating for it is a joy to see others argue over the points and rebut others' in such short amounts of time, it is indeed amazing how other's could think so fast.

I don't agree to that as i think its quite boring to debate like that,there's no face to face and you can't see what that person emotions(a face that shows that given up)
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

I disagee that Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating. There's more sense of compeition and excitement in classroom debating as people must think of their rebuttals to their opponents on the spot. Also, there is more room for discussion and arguments.
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.

When debating face to face, you can be more persuasive with both your tone of speaking and also facts. It will be easier to find some loopholes in the opposite party's stand and thus can get them while they are unaware.
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

I think that classroom debates, it is more "real" as it is a "live" one, so there is the atmossphere for the debate.The debaters also need to think on the spot for the rebuttals hence making it more challenging and fun (:CLASSROOM DEBATE, WIN! xD
Debate: Online debating is more interesting than classroom debating.
Side: Opposition

I think that classroom debating is more interesting than online debating.. As we can feel the tension between the two teams when the debating is going on. The group members also have to think of the rebuttals while listening to the other team's points. These two of it is cannot be seen in online debating.. Without the recording of rebuttals and the tension while debating, whats left is only the results of the debate.. I believe that nothing could be more interesting than the process of the debate.Thus, i disagree. (:

i feel that online debating is not as interesting as classroom debating. if your computer is slow to respond,in other words 'laggy', it will not be fair as some people have a head start, while others have to wait for their computer to load. Thus, the result is not fair.Secondly, it is better if we have a classroom debate as we can practice our oral skills instead of our typing skills. It will improve our speaking ability. With many classroom debates, it will also improve our conversation skills and also let students get use to speaking loudly in english, eventually preparing them for their 'O' levels.Thus i conclude that classroom debating is more interesting than online debating.~felicia chan (6)

Classroom debating is more interesting than online debating. Through classroom debating, one can have the experience of debating face to face. It is just like the show " Arena". One will face the difficulties and will have to overcome these difficulties within a short period of time. Team work is present during classroom debate too. Online debating is most of the time individual work, and is just a waste of time as it takes time to go online and think of your point of view of the argument. During classroom debate, more effort is put in in the student as there is time for him to do research and have more understanding of the argument better. Online debating does not teaches much to the student.

Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: yes

I think the death of bin laden is completely irrelevant, americans seem to think this guy master minded every islamic terrorist action for the last 10 yrs, the fact is he probably wasnt even the master mind of 9/11, all that is certain is that he was heavily involved in creating al queda, and that he worked very closely with the cia during the russian occupation of afghanistan. Really this guy is no figure head, his death is no cause for celebration, he did what he set out to do i.e. formed al queda, Obama said justice had been done, i see no justice, i see thousands of dead on 9/11(and all the other attacks since then i.e. london train station, bali etc. etc.), i see 1 million dead in Iraq, i see tens of thosuand dead in afghanistan,i see their peoples on their kness, and i dont see anyone anywhere on trial for these crimes.No one is being held accountable, were just being fed shit and being told its chocolate, i got news for ya, its shit!!!!!!Bin laden could have easily been captured and put on trial, you know to see what this guy actually knew, but no he was killed probably for that exact reason i.e. Obama didn't want the info. this guy had getting out, i wonder why???????????????????????You americans go ahead and have your moment, i suppose your media has been training your minds to beleive this man is the anti-christ for the last 10 yrs so his death no doubt seems like cause for celebration, il just say this, this man did all the damage he ever intended to do, and got away with it, and has been living in a pakistani mansion for the last 10 yrs with the full knowledge of the pakistani authorites, and ill bet with US knowledge as well. Think about it, do you really think this mans location was a big secret to the US, just think about for one second.
Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: No

Understanding your hate for americans and leaving it aside for a moment. Even if he wasn't the mastermind in the whole thing he is the one that lead them to carry it out by training them and taking full credit for what they did in NYC. This alone means that even if they dragged his worthless body in to be put through trial he would still be put to death for all his crimes. The men did what they had to do to get him. Did you really expect our men to stand by why they try to kill them for trying to capture Osama? No they faught back So you know what the fact that he was killed means the world to us and yes we are celebrating. Did he not celebrate when all those americans were killed. Give me a break! You have your thoughts on that and we have ours
Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: yes

"Understanding your hate for americans "I don't hate americans i consider them to be honest decent hard working warm hearted people. The government and the ruling elites it represents are the ones i hate. Unfortunately i beleive they have successfully manipulated the population into support many of there selfinterested actions with the human cost being very large all over the world. Look whether the man was killed or not is doesn't really matter to me, i would however have liked to hear his side of the story (and so would many others). I'm quite confident he'd have some interesting things to say about about his involvement with the US. All im saying is why was he killed in cold blood without being given a chance to hear what he had to say. Why was he not captured and put on trial isn't that the kind of treatment your country is supposed to be infavour of). I think he would have had lots of interesting things to say, i just dont think the US government wanted him to expose them. Just like the wikileaks fiasco.You can blame this man for all the terrorism in the world if it makes you sleep easier at night, the reason the flames of terrorism burn so brightly are primarily due to american foreign policy fanning them."Did you really expect our men to stand by why they try to kill them for trying to capture Osama?"This staement only proves how nieve you are. I'm not saying they didn't encounter minor resistance (may be they did) but to use that as an excuse for him ending up dead i find incredibly nieve, if the US government wanted the man alive he'd be alive."Give me a break! You have your thoughts on that and we have ours"The problem is your thoughts are shaped by your media, you don't question the authority that continues to lie to you and distort the truth, you beleive everything your government tells you, i consider that extremely nieve.
Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: No

Naive? there is nothing naive about what I posted. You just like me don't know the circumstances that lead to his death. The resistance that was put up by him and his men to say that he wasn't given a chance for a trial. I don't believe everything that media says and I am definetely not brainwashed by anything or anyone but I do know what happened on 9/11 as I was here and saw the whole thing and whether you want to hear it or not I am happy that waste of life is gone. You can call it whatever you want, thats how I feel and very much how others feel about it.
Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: yes

I said you were nieve in thinking that if the US wanted to take him alive they couldnt have. "You just like me don't know the circumstances that lead to his death"i dont need to know the circumstance to know that they could have taken alive if they wanted."I don't believe everything that media says"You don't have to beleive every word the media says to have your thoughts and opinons shaped byt eh information it provides you with which is purposely filtered to provide you with a very one sided view (im not just talking about FOX (thats the worst but thats cartoonish) all american media is heavily biased in favour of the corporate agenda). Here is a very respectable america media station hosted by the courageous news anchor Amy Goodman:http://www.democracynow.org/, its independent obviously cause something like this that actually presents the truth could never be allowed into mainstream US televisioin as it goes against all the corporate lies you're constantly fed.

We're all the indoctrinated ones and you're the one free thinking person in this discussion.
Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: No

No im indocrincated also, we all are, in certain ways, we are indoctrinated by our culture, or religious beliefs system, or lack thereof. The differnce is americans are subjected to very high level of indoctrination through their media. Americans media is owned by big business & corporate power, and so is the government, the governments actions are primarily motivated by the needs of big business, and the media is used to keep the people ignorant and docile, pure Orwellian chicanery. Fervent nationalism is then used to keep anyone from seriously questioning the actions of the government.
Debate: Osama Bin Laden is Dead! Do You Believe It?
Side: yes

"the differnce is the american are subnjected to very high level of indoctrination thorugh their media"I can't help but wonder where that opinion originates from. The U.S. has the widest range of reporters in the world, reporters from every country submit THEIR stories and videos, the U.S rarely has to try for footage. On my TV with my cheap service I have counted 16 seperate news stations(fox not included), your confusing indocrincation with availability perhaps. Or your talking about the politcal news stations we have, those are optional you know :)
