    Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to today’s debate session. My name is Crystalle
    Mae A. Genson and I’ll be your debate moderator for this morning.
    Before we begin, I would like to take a moment to thank each of you for taking the time to
    participate in this important discussion.
    Now, I would like to introduce our distinguished panelists for this morning. First, we have Mrs.
    Ria DJ. Cawit, together with representatives from each group as part of the panelists committee.
    Welcome, panelists.
    All teams have put in a great deal of effort to prepare for today’s debate, and we can expect to
    see some insightful and thought-provoking arguments from both sides. At this moment, I will be
    explaining the debate structure.
    Once you hear this sound (play the sound of the timer) this means that your time is up. Please
    be mindful of your time to avoid deduction from the judges. Next, here is the criteria for judging
    the debate.

    DEBATE ETIQUETTE
     Each member of the group must contribute to the debate at least twice.
     Profanity words will not be tolerated in this room.
     Do not cut off your opponent while they are still speaking.

    Without further ado, let’s begin with the opening statements. Debater 1, you have (insert time
    limit) to present your stand.
    (Debater 1 presents their stand)
    Thank you, Debater 1. Now, Debater 2, you have (insert time limit) to present your stand.
    (Debater 2 presents their stand)
    Thank you, Debater 2. Now, we will move on to the presentation of the main argument
    (Debater 1 presents their main argument)
    Thank you, Debater 1. Now, Debater 2, you have (insert time limit) to present your main
    argument.
    (Debater 2 presents their main argument)
    Thank you, Debater 2. Now, we will move on to the rebuttal period and cross-examination.
    Debater 1, you may begin.
    (Debaters engage in cross-examination and rebuttal)
    Thank you for the thoughtful exchange. Now, Debater 2, you may begin.
    (Debaters engage in cross-examination and rebuttal)
    Thank you again for your insightful arguments. Finally, we will move on to the closing
    statements. Debater 1 you may begin with your closing statement.
    (Debater 1 presents their closing statements)
    Thank you, Debater 1, and Debater 2, you may now present your closing statement.
    (Debater 2 presents their closing statement)
    Excellent job, debaters. Now, our judges will take a few minutes to score the debaters based on
    the quality of their arguments and presentation style. In a few moments, we will proceed to the
    next set of debaters.
    Now that the judges are done with the tally of scores. We will now proceed to the next set of
    debaters. The rules and structures of the debate are still the same.
    Ladies and gentlemen, our third and fourth teams of debaters.
    (Third and fourth teams will undergo the same procedure)
    Thank you, third and fourth teams. Thank you, debaters, for your insightful and informative
    arguments. The judges will soon announce the final score of each group, please keep posted.
    Once again, thank you to our debaters, judges, and audience for your participation today.
