Stupid people argue – smart people debate! – Debating Club grade 9 Show Debate 2023
On Monday evening members of the Debating Club from 9th grade showed the audience what they learnt this year: not only to argue but to debate. For that they had to give presentations, follow strict rules and had to convince their opponents by the use of well-founded arguments, formal debating strategies and, of course, excellent English. The students discussed the hot-button topics „Should the islamic prayer call be allowed in Germany?“ and „Should all zoos be closed?“ and made the audience think and laugh.
Thanks for an entertaining and enlightening evening!
