Each student will sign up to participate in a debate. You shall sign up for either a pro or con position. These sources can include interviews with people knowlegeable in the field as well as books and articles. The quality of the research will be based not only on the number and quality of your sources but also on how well you make use of them. The grade will also include how well you communicate your points to the audience.
Innovation is encouraged.
In that case, a single outline should be presented to the instructor with both students named as the author. There are 12 debate topics. We can have no more than 2 for and 2 against for any one topic. If you are not present for your assigned debate, you will lose credit. The debate topics are possible sources of questions for the Midterm and Final.
