Public Forum

Public Forum Debate was designed to enable debaters to discuss current events in an accessible, conversational format. Public Forum rounds feature polished delivery, exciting clash, and fast-paced refutations. It is one of the most popular debate formats students around the world compete in. You partner with one other student to prepare to debate both sides of the topic. You learn how to research, think strategically, write persuasive speeches, and hone your listening skills. You can’t help but improve on your public speaking skills, and you will start to really believe in your abilities as an effective communicator. The class will use the topics, or what we call resolutions, decided by the National Speech and Debate Association.
