Debating

Debatteren-afb.1Debating persuasively and writing and presenting a scientific article are remarkably similar activities: they both involve clear reasoning, concisely justifying positions, presentation skills and the ability to answer difficult questions from a critical audience.

In this workshop you will learn exactly this: how can you craft good arguments? How can you present them clearly and persuasively? You will gain hands-on experience through several interactive debate exercises. The workshop is an ideal mix between theory and practice and is led by Daniël Schut, a finalist of both the European and World Championships in debating (ESL).
