Education Management - Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
Debating is a fun and training competition in which the teams, formed by university students from different studies of the University and led by a captain, face a set of debates revolving around current affairs, proposed by the organization. This year's edition counts with the registration of 8 teams, formed by students of the Faculty of Mathematics, Geography and History, Economics and Business, Law, Physics, Psychology, who will play in groups of 2-5 people, in eliminatory phases with random matching-ups. This year, the topic for the eliminatory phases ("Should Internet be limited?) is fixed, unlike in other editions, following the academic debate model most used in university competitions. The position the participants have to defend (in favour or against) will be raffled five minutes before starting the debate. This model involves a high level of demand and allows participants to show their skills and talent to speak in public and in front of a jury formed by academic authorities and experts on communication. The two teams with the highest score will face each other in the final to decide the first and the second place. The winner will be the team with a better ability to communicate, make them understandable and mostly, join common perspectives and create opinion. The winners of the competition will represent the University of Barcelona in the 13th University Debate League of the Vives University Network. Practicing debate is an activity that allows improving oratory and rhetoric, it gives confidence when speaking in public and offers tools to control the language. The debate also allows the students to acquire and practice meditation strategies and techniques for negotiation and conflict resolution. Everything together makes this activity –recognized with an ECTS credit- to have a high educational potential.
