Why would we want to learn to debate?
A Debate in the widest sense contributes to improve the quality of our verbal communication to express ideas convincingly and with self-confidence. It obliges to express our ideas from different points of view in an orderly and decisive way. It teaches to articulate ideas clearly and rapidly, and to think critically. Debating forces us to analize, define, argue, present the message and furthermore…to listen carefully!
Through a playful dynamic, at the end of the training you will benefit from the unique aspects of your personality for your own benefit, and at the same time be able to focus and express any personal conviction and make it an effective tool in discussions.
At the end of the course you will have learned:
• How to prepare a structured debate.
• Listen with empathy.
• Think critically.
• Understand what it takes be convincing.
• Unravelling the structure of the argument.
• Discriminate between strong and weak ways to reason.
• Ask critical questions and provide effective answers.
• Learn how to make useful interruptions.
• Work in a team.

The course provides you the knowledge and experience to convince others with confidence, using the tools for the preparation and execution of a Debate.
The course is characterized by a lot of practice (hands-on), the theory will be explained further as the students advance in managing their skills of Debating.
The exercise consists of a verbal confrontation between the two teams. Some speak in favour and others against a default motion. It must meet strict standards and timelines. At the end of the debate, a "jury" evaluates the arguments and presentation.
Module 1: Introduction. What is a debate. Ethos, pathos and logos. The structure of a debate about the policy change. Practice and feedback.
Module 2: Practice Debate on policy change; applied exercises and theory. Practice and feedback.
Module 3: The structure of a debate about values. Practice and feedback, applied exercises and theory.
Module 4: Deepening the knowledge and experience in both types of Debate, handle interruptions and fallacies. Examples with videos.
