Melio Online Debating Challenge #3

Everyone loves a good debate. In fact, French moralist Joseph Joubert once said, “It is better to debate a question without settling it than to settle a question without debating it.” Is your child likely to agree with that remark? Then the Debating Challenge #3 is definitely created for them.

We’re giving them the opportunity to engage in a verbal battle with the brightest students from India, USA, Europe, Thailand and the Middle East. It’s bound to be a crackling contest! 

Each debate will have 2 debaters. One arguing ‘For’ and the other ‘Against’ the topic. The debate will be held in a question-answer (interrogation) format. Each debater has 15 seconds to ask the question and gets 45 seconds to give their answer. After each question is asked, debaters get 10 seconds to collect their thoughts and then respond with their answer.
