MINI REPORT

This activity is designed to assess the debaters' reflexes and thinking skills while discovering potential talents. It emphasizes the development of key qualities in graduates, including enhanced critical thinking, recognizing the complexity of problems, identifying logical flaws, and improving individual and teamwork skills during discussions.
 
The theme is whether immortality is a good thing. The debater's task is to explain the topic from his or her own perspective and to provide a defensive and critical analysis of opposing viewpoints.
 
The main motivation for participating is the opportunity to improve critical thinking skills. This event encourages participants to explore the complexity of issues, appreciate different perspectives, and improve logical reasoning and communication skills.

SELF REFLECTION

Engaging in this activity has had a profound impact on my growth as a graduate student. It has broadened my perspective on global and high-profile issues, encouraging me to approach them from various angles. I no longer rely on superficial judgments; instead, I delve deeper to uncover the underlying truths.

Through this competition, I unearthed one of my core strengths - a strong aptitude for logical thinking. I possess the ability to identify weaknesses swiftly and accurately in opposing arguments and effectively counter them. Furthermore, with the assistance of teamwork and collaboration, I attained the distinction of being recognized as the top debater.

However, I faced challenges along the way, struggling with self-confidence and uncertainty about how to best convey my arguments for maximum impact. With the guidance of experienced seniors, I gradually found the courage to overcome these obstacles.
