Class will cover the basics of argument construction then a mock debate followed by personal feedback. I will be running debates in the British Parliamentary format as I believe it is the best option for training one's critical thinking and basic political knowledge. My classes aim to not only improve a students debate skills and presentation, but also to improve student's ability to write effective academic essays, as the ability to present ones thesis clearly and convincingly is often the best way excel.
