Editor's Notes

  1. >There are as many different styles and forms of debates as there are debtaes
  2. >Getting angry, flustered, nervous, upset, or breaking down in any way WILL affect how others see your position >Always remember that people rarely decide what side of a formal debate they will argue, so they may not be defending their own views: do not attack your opponent, attack their argument(s)
  3. Make sure you speak clearly: the general rule for public speaking is to speak half as fast and twice as loud as you usually would
  4. Make sure you are presenting an informed position, being proven wrong is damaging and embarrassing, things everyone wants to avoid Be an exciting speaker, be animated, monotone or dry speaking will bore your audience, not win them over Debating is equal parts Substance and Presentation
  5. MAKE SURE you do not insult or offend with your anecdotes / jokes, they can be very powerful tools when used properly
  6. Knowing and being ready for time constraints will make you appear better organized for your debate, it will also make you less nervous about speaking publicly
  7. In order to be the most effective, you need to make strong, solid points about your topic, but you also need to take apart your opponents points
  8. Having a strategy worked out for your side ahead of time will definitely help you win your debate by being unified and prepared enough to stay collected
