My group wasn’t a well organized group, each group members
prefer to work on their own argument so we rarely communicate to other nor
sharing the information that we researched for the evidences, we are more focus
in finding points which are strong and suitable for the debate then decide who
is the person who is going to argue about it. Ten, we give the person trust to
create an argument that will help the group to win debate, or at least, an
argument which is better than what the opponent group created.
I didn’t practice for what I’m going to say in the debate, I
memorized the points that I’m going to argue but I still forgot some of them so
I often stop in the middle of the argument to think. I also felt nervous in the
debate. It made me forgot some vocabularies which make it hard for me to
explain what I want to say. To improve those problems, I should practice
arguing and memorizing the points that I’m going to debate to make sure that I’m
prepared for the debate.
I think that my team mates did well. They explained their
argument in a detailed way which is easy to understand and have evidences that
supports their point. Yemi’s argument points out that the drug traffickers could
ruin the drug-users life or kill them with the drugs that they had trafficked
and sold to the victims so they should be executed because they cause danger to
people. And Davin explained that the drug trafficker should be executed because
they had broken the law of the country so they deserve to get the consequence.
We used the ethos, pathos, and logos, by explaining the
evidences that we argued in a logical way and supporting evidences, talked
about human rights, and explained the argument in an easy way to understand.
At the end, I think that my group didn’t perform bad, we
still need to improve our argument and communication.
