Declamation Exercise for Friday, 1/29

Here's the video I'd like each of you to watch in preparation for next week's declamation exercise. Some tips:

  1. Check the assignments below to know what your role in the debate will be.
  2. Take your role seriously. If you're speaking, you should flow the round meticulously, watch it several times and attempt to capture both the substance and expression of the arguments.
  3. Following the round, the adjudication panel will engage in a (fly-on-the-wall) deliberation to rank the teams. Obviously there is no video of the actual deliberation that occurred, but we do know the outcome. I'm not going to hold the adjudication panel to that outcome; they may judge the round that happened. Following their deliberation, we'll discuss the exercise.
  4. Be ready to go at 9:30 next Friday.

  1. Steve- As fun as this sounds (not being sarcastic at all)... I will be in Chicago next Friday, as will Michaela, and not at practice, so being MP might be a challenge.
