Hello debaters!

Improve your reasoning, learn to argue better. On Wednesday, we’ll briefly glimpse into the theory & practice of argumentation, then learn by doing. Argumentation exercises will follow in teams and/or in pairs. It’s a comfortable setting, so newcomers, do not hesitate to join!

Following issues will be addressed, among others:
… What key issues of argumentation are most relevant to debating practice?
… What is the difference between a statement and an argument?
… How do you choose your main points and develop them well?
… How do you win an argument?

Debating is a great mind game that requires logic, decision-making, quick reactions & improvisation.

Come, practice and learn!

With kind regards,
ADS team
