HOW TO RESEARCH FOR
YOUR DEBATE
WHAT IS RESEARCH AND WHY IS IT
IMPORTANT?
 Example: The topic is “Schools should be segregated”
 You start of your research by asking the question “why is
school segregation a thing?”
During this stage, you should filter the vast information only
according to “necessity”
You should research in-depth:
 why is it a motion in the first place?
 how is not promoting space exploration a problem?
NECESSITY
 Example: If the fact in your NECESSITY stage was “school
segregation prevents the rise of hate crimes”
The fact in your BENEFICIALITY stage can be “segregation has
resulted in a drop of number of hate crimes”
 Focus your research on how the opposing motion is not
beneficial
BENEFICIARY
 There is a very small difference between practicality and
practicability
 We use practicable instead of practical because debate
motions can only be promoted based on whether or not it is
an actual plan
PRACTICABILITY
PRACTICAL PRACTICABLE
Relates to something not being theoretical Relates to a plan which can be done
Example: Human exploration of intergalactic
space is not practical
Example: Exploring Mars with SpaceX rovers
is practicable
THE PROS AND CONS APPROACH
1. USE GENERAL TERMS
2. COMPILE ARTICLES FIRST, THEN READ
THEM
3. DON’T RESEARCH WITH A POSITION IN
MIND
 General understanding
 Research about position
 Why do people support this position
 Statistics in position
 Further research to backup previous research
4. RESEARCH IN STAGES
 15 mins research
 5 min break
 30 mins research
 10 min break
 60 mins research
 20 min break
5. TAKE BREAKS
6. STATISTICS STATISTICS STATISTICS
6. STATISTICS STATISTICS STATISTICS
 Help with rebuttals
 Save time midst debate
 Confidence
 Focus more on your position
7. RESEARCH YOUR OPPOSITION
8. USE A RESEARCH DEBATE TEMPLATE
THAT BEST FITS U
Whats left to
be done:
