I lovvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeee it so much because of the reasons below.
1. I'm still stuck with( or "on"?) the topic, "should government provide mother tongue education for a large amount of immigrant?" It is a really interesting question, i was nearly conviced by the team who were pro. I'm not stuck with the topic of multiculturism or integration/assimilation) because I think pluralism is the best anwser for immigration, Lmao.......
2. it makes me think. obviously, I'm not like mousa, he knows many things. The two debate we had broaden my horizon. yeah, maybe !
3. The debate I had let me know how sucks my English is, so I wanna prectice my speaking skill more. the best way to text or practice my speaking skills is one more debate. But can I choose my compitetor? I dont wanna beat the smartest student again. LOL
4. before the debate on wed, I had never debated before, kenda fun. The most important is that it taught how to be an organizer. Undouptedly, I really need that skill ~~~~~~~
Thank you for your very thoughtful feedback, Adam. I appreciate it.
I agree with you that the second debate topic was more engaging than the first because many of us would agree that pluralism--the third option--is better than either complete multi-culturalism or complete assimilation. It was more interesting because we were debating a policy, rather than just an idea. So it has been a learning experience for me as well as to what works well and what doesn't.
Now that everybody is familiar with the process, I definitely want to do another round of debates next week. I think that debating is a fabulous way to practice listening, speaking, reading, and critical thinking. In addition, it teaches us the power of persuasion, perhaps the best type of power there is!
