Challenging Technology Issues

In this team event, students debate a current technology-related topic by presenting both sides of the issue. Teams are given the topic at the event and have 15 minutes to prepare before giving a short presentation. The goal is to clearly explain and defend different viewpoints using logic, research, and good speaking skills. Judges evaluate how well the team explains the issue and supports their argument. If you enjoy public speaking, discussing important issues, or being on the debate team, this is a great choice. It’s perfect for students who are persuasive, thoughtful, and enjoy current events.
