Debate

Have you heard the term Debates? If your school is organising competitions from time to time, I am sure you would have come across this format of competition atleast once! Debates are arguments about different topics that are done in a formal manner. Debates help us think about different topics more clearly. Different debate formats are used in schools and colleges.

Debates are a very good way of improving our communication skills. We have to communicate clearly, to the point, and in an organized manner while presenting an argument in debates. 

Would you like to practice debates with your friends? Here are a few tips for you:

• Start with a simple topic, you can also take some topics that you are studying.
• You can speak for and your friend can speak against it. 
• Research on that topic.
• Prepare a list of your arguments.
