The document outlines a debate format for university students on the topics of mandatory education about people with special abilities and the use of typing versus handwriting for note-taking. Students will be randomly divided into two groups to argue for or against each topic, with a focus on developing integrated skills. Participants will only learn which stance they will represent on the day of the debate.

1. DEBATE

2. It must be mandatory for schools to educate
students about people with special abilities to
foster understanding and empathy from a
young age

3. Handwriting Vs Typing notes: University
Students must not be allowed to use typing
note-taking

4. The class will be randomly divided into two
groups: half will be assigned to present
arguments in favour; the other half will be in
charge of arguments against each topic.

6. BOR= breakout room

8. REBUT: to argue that a statement or claim is not true.

10. Students should develop integrated skills (reading, listening, and
speaking), while researching all the aspects of the topic: arguments in favor
as well as the ones against it.
Students will be informed of whether they are in the group in favor or
against just on the very same day of the debate, not before.
