前言

　　Technology and globalization have spread opportunities around the world.Yet these same forces have also brought about changes at an unprecedented pace.Peter Lyman of the UC Berkeley School of Information warns that“with the amount of stored information growing at a rate of about 30％a year，a real change in our human ecology is taking place.Specialized knowledge is updated SO often that it has a half-life-the time a piece of information stays current——as short as five years".　　Even with this quickly changing environment students are still rewarded for memorizing information that will soon be outdated.Worse yet，students cram for exams and as soon as the test is over they forget most ofwhat they“knew."　　Specifically，in language instruction we can be“left with verbalismJ whereby learners do nothing more than 1isten to lecturesJ take notes，and memorize abstract definitions.If language instruction is limited to this type of activity， conceptual knowledge will have no power to be generalized to specific concrete　　communicative situations and will essentially be useless".　　Debating in English strives to be different from this type of education.Of course，you will need to learn concepts in this book.But these concepts should not be treated as checkmarks for taking an exam.Instead you need to participate in activities to make these concepts part ofwho you are，SO that you can be a better thinker and a better speaker in English.

章节摘录

　　Hierarchy of values.Any motion being debated could involve many different values.Some of these values might be in conflict with each othe which means the values cannot all be achieved equally at the same time.If they are in conflict，the propositional team should set up a hierarchy of values within the framework of the context or in the order of importance.In terms of our example on technologv the highest value could be"naximizing the learning of the students."However，if PPT is used in an oral English classroom，a conflicting value may be PPT is"easier for the teacher to lecture：If the students find the PPT lecture unengaging，we need to ask in the context of an oraI communication class：Which is a higher value-ease of lecturing for the teacher，or engagement of the students for maximizing the learning.　　Criteria.Once the hierarchy is established，how will we know whether it is met or not？In the above example，how much involvement is necessary for students to have a better educational experience for developing oral communication sldlls？ This criterion could be established in a manner that points in a direction such as anything that reduces student discussion would lessen the educational experience.Another approach is to establish how much time should be spent in lecturing and how much time spent in activities.If the evidence says at least a 50％involvement is best for learningJ then anything less caused by technology would 1essen the educational experience.
