HomeIntgegrating the Four Skills Through Debate
Sunday, January 14th, 2001, 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM
Speaker: Charles LeBeau, co-author of Discover Debate and Getting Ready for Speech
In many 4 skills courses, the skills of reading and writing become a gratuitous afterthought tagged onto the edges of listening and speaking activities. Debate links listening comprehension to oral production, and moreover, the skills of reading and writing are also vital to the practice of debate. This workshop will first present a model for argumentation that adapts itself equally well to spoken and written expression. Then, participants will cycle through a variety of speaking, listening, reading, and writings.
