Debate Club Training on Making and Breaking a Point 2023-24
Another debate training session on ‘types of motions, argumentation and refutation’ was held on 18 April 2023 via the web platform Zoom for over 120 participants of DPS Modern Indian School. Seasoned debaters Victoria Honoridez, Azhar Jaleel Muhammed, Krish Nagrani, Aryan Dubey and Drishti Tibrewal together conducted the session with the help of their coach Ms. Jaya Majumder.
The session began with the introduction of four types of motions. The trainers then delved into the art of argumentation and refutation. They discussed the different approaches that each type of motion requires and shared techniques for constructing compelling arguments and rebuttals, followed by a brief question-and-answer session.
The debaters were tested with a quiz and were provided learning resources.
