Introduction to Policy Debate
Join to learn the ins and outs of policy debate and learn how to structure arguments and beat others, while debating about key real-world issues and finding good policies to address them! Every week, we will go over some basics on policy debate, and cover some sort of new argumentation or a way to articulate other arguments and find rebuttals. There will be practice debate sessions where we run through an actual debate with the participants - they are super fun. We will be using the novice packet for simplicity - the NDCA novice packet. I will provide a copy of the packet word files once we start the class, but it is available online.
