DAV Adjudicator Training Session

The DAV will be running an "Adjudicator Training Session" at Deakin Geelong.

Date: March 18
Time: 9am-5pm
Where: I will tell you if you email me to register that you are coming.

The adjudicator training session is an excellent way to not only become qualified to adjudicate external competitions, but also to learn many many things about debating. It runs all day. In the morning you will learn what adjudicators look for in a debate to decide who will win. You will also learn the finer points of the three criteria: matter, manner and method. In the afternoon you will watch two taped debates, and will be required to score them, decide who wins, and give reasons for your decision.

But not only will your knowledge of debating expand exponentially, you will become a qualified adjudicator, able to adjudicate debates for the DAV at $40 a night. Good easy money I say.

If you want to attend, you need to email me now - jrcoo@deakin.edu.au, so that your place is secured.

Don't forget, adjudicators have all the fun!
