縲Based on a formal, well structured methodology, this 7 week course aims to teach strategic debating skills. In every class a debate will take place between 2 teams of the same size. Those who are observers are asked to make comments on the debate afterwards.
Maximum class size is 25.
The course will be given in Japanese in even years, English in odd years.
