- Tomorrow you will do a debate in class.
- What are some purposes of debate?
- - to educate people about different opinions and pros and cons of an issue
- - to practice logic and critical thinking
- - to find a good answer or resolution to a question
- - convince the audience to support one side or the other
- - to figure out why you have the position you have (and why the other side disagrees)
- Preparing for a debate can also:
- - teach you about resources for knowledge about the topic
- - help you know the opponents and their views
- ---
- We will debate the statement, “Public university tuition should be free nationwide, for all students.”
- In your group, make a list of arguments both for and against this statement.
- ---
- Optional homework: read the plan on Bernie Sanders’s website for making tuition free in the US, and think of additional positive and negative arguments. https://berniesanders.com/issues/its-time-to-make-college-tuition-free-and-debt-free/
