Ms. Samiksha Arora, an alumnus of DPS Modern Indian School, conducted a workshop on the 3rd February 2022 via the web platform Zoom. It was attended with immense passion and enthusiasm by 19 senior debaters of the debate club and their coach, Ms. Jaya Majumder.
The workshop was conducted as part of the training series for the Qatar Schools Debating League-II for boys and girls. The motion for the debate was This House Believes That South Korea should give up on the act of seeking reunification with North Korea followed by a feedback session where Samiksha laid out tips and techniques to help the debaters strengthen their case.
The debate was between Team- Abhimanyu Gupta of IX-B, Devnarayin Bipin Menon of IX-C and Kenil Gandhi of IX-C on Proposition against Team- Azhar Jaleel Mohammed of X-C, Mubeen Sakharakar of XI-I and Govind Krishna of IX-E on Opposition. Samiksha, the judge, was assisted by Victoria Apolonio Honoridez of XI-I as the timekeeper. After a competitive and intense round, team Opposition bagged the debate.
The workshop concluded with valuable feedback provided by Ms Samiksha, which genuinely helped the debaters strengthen their cases for the upcoming championship. The session was exciting and loaded with information which the students truly enjoyed.
