This week, Mattia Marchese and Kamil Błasiak from the TalTech Debate Club joined our Public Speaking classes for two sessions on debate and argumentation.
On the first day, they introduced us to the world of debate, shared examples of debate motions, and talked about the skills we can develop through debating. Students also learned the P-SEXI framework for building strong arguments and practised using it in a short exercise.
On the second day, we explored different types of logical fallacies and discussed why people use them in speeches and arguments. We finished with a debate following the British Parliamentary format, giving students a great opportunity to practise building arguments, responding to opposing views, and thinking on their feet.
Thank you, Mattia and Kamil, for two interesting and practical sessions!
