Bush and Al Gore. Through a university arrangement with Opinioneering Corp., young people across the United States are participating in an online discussion about campaign issues such as foreign policy and tax reform as the debate and election approach. A group of local citizens has also been selected to participate in a national online survey at Wake Forest during the Oct. 11 debate through a university arrangement with Speakout.com. Students from more than 70 high schools from Florida to Alaska are participating in another online project about campaign issues using a curriculum created by Wake Forest professors. University students designed the Internet site for the high school project. Young people find their way to the online projects through links on Wake Forest's new debate Web site

WFU News Service QuickFind . . . WFU Home WFU News Technology plays a key role in Wake Forest debate activities By Vanessa Urruela Willis September 6, 2000 Wake Forest University is using its Internet technology to respond to the Commission on Presidential Debates' request for help in reaching young voters. Several Internet projects and partnerships are underway as the university prepares for the scheduled Oct. 11 Presidential Debate at campus landmark Wait Chapel. "Our two goals are to encourage young people to vote by reaching them through technology, and to enable anyone to experience the debate electronically, including alumni and friends the world over," said Bob Mills, associate vice president for university advancement. Wake Forest has been nationally recognized for its use of technology since the 1996 launch of a technology initiative that provides all students with laptop computers and printers. The initiative has also increased the role of the Internet in the academic curriculum. Yahoo! Internet Life magazine has ranked Wake Forest 19th among America's "Most Wired" universities and research schools. The university is partnering with Rock the Vote, a nonprofit organization, to host a free concert in Winston-Salem that will wrap around the debate. Rock the Vote is a group that works to increase youth involvement in the political process.

Debate activities preserved for posterity The sights and sounds of the biggest event in the history of Washington University will have their own place in history because they have been secured on video and audio tape. Everything from local press briefings to high-level planning meetings were recorded on 30 hours of audiotape by University Archivist Carole A. Prietto. In addition, the University hired producer Andy Ruhlin to record on video the day-to-day happenings leading up to the first presidential debate of 1992. Prietto was called into the project about halfway through preparations and Ruhlin began videotaping on Thursday preceding the debate. Both recorded activities throughout the weekend. Prietto, who shadowed University officials for five days with microphone in hand, will listen to the tapes and edit and prepare them for use by University administrators. She said transcribing the recordings verbatim would be too cumbersome a task. In addition, she also will compile a printed record by cataloging news clips from around the world and gather video materials that were produced by the University. Press packets, including pens, pencils, T-shirts, and all other promotional materials, also will be cataloged and stored. "This will be extremely valuable for the University record because it will help us if we ever host another major event such as this," says Prietto. "By maintaining a complete record, we will be able to learn what issues officials had to deal with at the time and how they handled the issues. This is the biggest event in the history of Washington University. We have never hosted an event of this magnitude, and we need to record it because it's too important to overlook."

Traditional Activities In over 200 years of history, more than a few functions have become regular events. Here are a few of the more well known ones. Debate Activities Literary Activities Not-So-Serious Activities Monday Night Meetings The Societies meet every Monday that classes are in session for Senators to practice their speaking and debating skills. Debates are held in parliamentary style, and guests are encouraged to participate. The debate is followed by a short break and a short business meeting. Then comes Papers, Petitions, Memorials, and Addresses, more commonly known as PPMA, where anyone may speak on any topic of their choice. Previous PPMA's have included book and poetry readings, singing, and speeches on random topics. After the meeting, Senators and guests adjourn to the Phi for well-deserved refreshments and pleasant conversation, which may last well into the night. The Kemp Plummer Battle Lecture Traditionally given on the evening of University Day, this formal lecture seeks to enlighten the University community regarding its past. Recent speakers have been Gladys Hall Coates on Thomas Wolfe, Dr. Rachel Willis on the development of UNC's campus, and John Sanders on the history of UNC architecture. Intersocietal Gathering The Intersocietal Gathering was first organized in Fall of 1999 to try and unite literary and debate societies from around the East Coast in one conference. While the first gathering ran into more snags than expected, future gatherings should prove to be much more interesting and successful.

20. Introduction What is JDA. The Japan Debate Association (JDA) was inaugurated in March 1986 withthe aim of promoting debate activities and developing debate skills in Japan. http://www.kt.rim.or.jp/~jda/intro-e.htm

What is JDA T he Japan Debate Association (JDA) was inaugurated in March 1986 with the aim of promoting debate activities and developing debate skills in Japan. Debate is a competitive form of communication conducted according to specific rules, where two teamsthe "Affirmative" and the "Negative"oppose each other on an issue. The Affirmative team stands in favor of the proposition, called a "resolution", and the negative team takes a stand against it, in one of several ways. Each side presents its own case based on research and analysis of the resolution, and advocates this stand throughout the debate by responding to and refuting their opponents' arguments. The primary purpose of debate is to persuade a third party, that is, the debate judge and/or the audience. Debate is a very effective tool for making decisions in the various situations we face daily in society. It is, therefore, used in education and training programs to develop essential abilities, such as researching and analyzing specific issues, thinking critically and logically, conducting reasoned discourse, and making clear and logical verbal presentations of theresults of these processes. As Japan works to maintain and increase its role in the international arena, it is called upon to make choices which reflect its own priorities as a nation, and to advocate the validity of these choices in ways clearly understood by its counterparts. Within the Japanese society, too, it will become more and more necessary to identify unequivocally where disagreements lie, and to work out solutions which take a number of different opinions and standpoints respectfully into account.
