Wednesday

 Today I give some basic feedback on your essays, discuss debate again, and then we'll look at the rebuttal speech in a debate and finally give you some time to research and set up your debates for Thursday - Monday.

1) Constructive Arguments (thesis and claims)
2) Cross Examination sections
3) Rebuttals and Flowing
4) Ethos, Logos, Pathos in debate
5) Personal Connection, Expert Testimony, Facts and Statistics, Logical connections.
6) Who wins and why.

Pro Case	Con Response to Pro Case	Con Case	Pro Response to Con Case
Claim 1: Warrants (Proof): Impact (So What):		Claim 1: Warrants (Proof): Impact (So What):
Claim 2: Warrants (Proof): Impact (So What):		Claim 2: Warrants (Proof): Impact (So What):
Claim 3: Warrants (Proof): Impact (So What):		Claim 3: Warrants (Proof): Impact (So What):

After we go over this information, I will give you time to set up your debate topics and the resolves.  Please go over these resolves with me before you start research.

Okay - so we need to continue with the research for your debates.  Remember to think about the HARMS or IMPACTS of your Claims.  What will happen if you side isn't listened to.  Also research the opposite side and begin to think about rebuttals.
