Today's Topic:

1. The class will be divided into three categories: two debating "teams" and a panel of judges.

2. A coin toss will decide which of the two debating teams gets to decide which perspective (pro/con) to argue.

2. The two teams will then be given 20 minutes to prepare their opening statements.

3. Five minute arguments will be made by a representative (or representatives) of each group

4. After ten more minutes of prep time, a different spokesman for each team will rebut the opposing teams initial argument.

5. Afterwards, the panel of judges will convene privately to decide which team won the debate. Members of the winning team will receive a bonus point (one percentage point) appended to their final grade.
