In the first debate we had the discussion of “Professional teaching in the school”. I think this debate was incredibly well prepared because they really thought of the arguments and counterarguments that could be shown in the debate. However, the team that was against professional in schools should improve the use of logos because they did not show any statistics that could have given them a strong argument against the other team. Another important characteristic of the debate that should be improved is remembering all the facts that should be mentioned. I am quite sure both teams forgot to mention an important survey or fact they had researched. I think the team in favor won because they presented more facts than the other team and they also sounded more convincing. In addition, at the end I think one member of the against team made a huge mistake in answering the questions the in favor team had presented.
In the second debate about the voluntary vote and automatic registration, I also think they lacked facts and statistics. They could have done an incredible work by doing some research about different decades and how that is presented nowadays. They also sounded nervous, so anxiety is something they must improve. I cannot define a winner because the debate did not finish. There was something I wanted to say, but probably I will express it tomorrow.
