The age-old skill of debate can enhance our lives by improving our confidence, knowledge, and ability to interact effectively with those around us. This exciting course introduces the student to the lively world of debate and develops skills that can be applied in almost every other aspect of their personal and professional lives. From independent research to critical thinking, current affairs to public speaking, debate gives us the tools to look at the world with an analytical eye and present a case about what we find. It can help us to stand up to questioning, to structure our written essays better and to form opinions on important issues. On this course students learn the main techniques of debate, construct and present their own arguments and conduct their own debates, whilst exploring some fascinating topical issues along the way.
