Introduction About Debate
MATTER 素材
1. ‘Matter’ relates to the issues in debate, the ca being prented and the material ud to substantiate argumentation.
2. The issues under debate should be correctly prioritized (by teams) and ordered (by individuals), dealing with the most important/pertinent first.
3. Matter should be logical and well reasoned.
4. Matter should be relevant, both to the issue in contention and the cas being advanced.
5. Matter should be persuasive.
wNo ‘new matter’ is to be introduced during Reply Speeches. The Reply Speech prents teams with an opportunity to focus on the major issue(s) in the debate and the way in which both teams approach that ‘point of Clash’. The Reply Speech should also give an ‘optimistic overview’ of the general approach to the debate by both sides and focus on the relative merits of the ca by the side Replying, and the relative weakness in the ca of the opposing team.
wAll speakers should develop ‘positive matter’ in advancing their respective cas. While an Opposition team may win by demonstrating that the Government has not proved the motion true, they should not rely purely on their rebuttal of the Government ca and will likely benefit from prenting positive matter in opposition to the motion.
