UIL CX District Competition will be Feb. 8th. Just around the corner!
Controversial issues arise in aspects of personal, social public, and professional life in modern society. Debate and argumentation are widely used to make decisions and reduce conflict. Students who develop skills in argumentation and debate become interested in current issues, develop sound critical thinking, and sharpen communication skills. They acquire life-long skills to intelligently approach controversial issues and classes of opinion. The aspects of Team (CX) Debate, Lincoln-Douglas debate, and Informative/Persuasive Extemporaneous Speech will be covered, as well as, Mock Trial. Finally, each student will be required to participate in a competition level to demonstrate practical skills and knowledge of the subject.
Our fourth outing to UIL Cross-Examination Debate will be at Blanco High School on Jan. 14th. Afterwards, we will be going to Round Rock on Jan. 28th.
