2. Questioner and opponent should treat each other with
courtesy.
3. Both speakers stand and face the audience during the
question or Interpellation period.
4. Once the questioning has begun, neither the questioner
nor his opponent may consult a colleague. Consultation
should be done before but as quietly as possible   .
Rules on Interpellation
5. Questioners should ask brief and easily understandable
question. Answers should equally be brief. Categorical questions
answerable by yes or no is allowed, however, opponent if he
choose, may qualify his answer why yes or why no.
6. Questioner may not cut off a reasonable and qualifying
answer, but he may cut off a nervous response with a statement
such as a “thank you” “that is enough information” or “your
point is quite clear” or “I’m satisfied.”
7. Questioner should not comment on the response of his
opponent.
8. Your opponent may refuse to answer ambiguous, irrelevant or
loaded questions by asking the questioner to rephrase or reform
his question.
Rules on Rebuttal Speech
A. Rebuttal speaker should point out clearly
the fallacies committed by his opponent
stating clearly what particularly statement or
argument constitute said fallacy.
B. If not familiar with the fallacies of logic,
the debater may counter arguments directly
by stating what arguments or statement is
incorrect or false.
Role of the Moderator
The moderator of the debate has the following
duties:

1. To reveal the issue involve the debate;
2. To rule on points of clarification about the
issues or questions and answers made during the
Interpellation; and
3. To see to it that the debate is orderly and
follows the rules of parliamentary procedures.
Role of the Timer

accurately;
2. To give the speakers a one-minute
warning with the ringing of the bell once
before his/her time is up.
3. To prevent the debaters from exceeding
the time allotted to them by ringing the
bell twice.
Tips on Interpellation
and Rebuttal
CROSS EXAMINATION
A. The cross-examination period of a debate is
   a time when the person who is not going to
   speak next in the constructive questions the
   person who has just finished speaking.
B. Consider cross examination an information
   exchange period - it is not the time to role
   play lawyer.
CROSS EXAMINATION
 C. Cross examination may serve six
 objectives:
 1. To clarify points
 2. To expose errors
 3. To obtain admissions
 4. To setup arguments
 5. To save prep time
 6. To show the judge how cool you are
 so they WANT to vote
CROSS EXAMINATION
 D. Most debaters tend to ignore the value of good cross-
 examination. Remember, 30% of the entire debate is spent
 in cross-examination -- it should be a meaningful and
 essential part of the debate. If nothing else, debaters tend to
 underestimate the importance that cross-examination may
 have on the judge.
 E. Cross-examination will indicate to the judge just how
 sharp and spontaneous the debaters are. Invisible bias will
 always occur in a debate round and judges would always
 like the sharpest team to win. Good, effective cross-
 examination of the opponents can play an important
 psychological role in winning the ballot of the judge.
CROSS EXAMINATION
 F. Be dynamic. Have questions and be ready
 to go, answer questions actively and with
 confidence whenever you can. The image
 you project will be very important to the
 audience/judge. This is the one opportunity
 the audience/judge has to compare you with
 opponent’s side-by-side.
GUIDELINES FOR ASKING
QUESTIONS:
1. Ask a short Q designed to get a short A
2. Indicate the object of your Q
3. Don't telegraph your argument, don't
make it too obvious.
4. Don't ask Q they won't answer
properly."So, we win, right?"
GUIDELINES FOR ASKING
QUESTIONS:
5. Make Q seem important, even if it is
just an attempt to clarify.
6. Politeness is a must -- emphasize the
difference if they are rude.
7. Approach things from a non-obvious
direction. Then trap them.
8. Mark your flow/notes as to what you
want to question them about.
GUIDELINES FOR ASKING
QUESTIONS:
9. Avoid open ended Qs unless you are
sure they are clueless.
10. Face the judge/audience, not your
opponent.
11. CX answers must be integrated into
your arguments made during a speech.
GUIDELINES FOR ANSWERING
QUESTIONS:
1. Concise A.
2. Refer to something you have already
said whenever possible. This is safe.
3. Answer based on your position in the
debate so far. Keep options open.
4. Don't make promises of what you or
your partner will do later.
GUIDELINES FOR ANSWERING
QUESTIONS:
5. Qualify your answers.
6. Be willing to exchange documents
read into the debate.
7. Answer only relevant questions.
8. Address the judge.
GUIDELINES FOR ANSWERING
QUESTIONS:
9. Try and not answer hypothetical Q. If
they demand, say you will give a
hypothetical A.
10. Signal each other, don't tag-team.
11. Don't say"I don't know,"say"I am not
sure at this time...."
REBUTTALS
A. Most debaters, coaches, and judges would
   agree that rebuttals are the most difficult and
   yet the most important parts of the debate.
B. Not only is there less time within each speech,
   but each debater has to sort through all of the
   issues to determine which ones are the most
   important ones!
C. What a debater does or does not do in
   rebuttals will decide who wins the debate.
   Very few debaters (especially beginners) can
   hope to extend everything that happened in
   the constructive speeches.
REBUTTALS
D. Debaters don't have to do that and just
   because a team may have dropped a point or
   an argument is not an automatic reason to
   vote against that team.
E. What matters is the type of argument that is
   extended or dropped in rebuttals-this will
   determine the winner of the round.
REBUTTALS
Think about these four issues when rebuttals
happen:
1. Which arguments have more weight at the
end of the round?
2. Which outcomes (disads, counter plans)
are more likely given lots of internal links?
3. What about time frame-what happens
first?
4. What about the quality of evidence?
REBUTTALS
Here are some other helpful hints:
1. Avoid repetition. Don't just repeat your
constructive arguments. Beat the other team's
arguments and tell the judge why your arguments
are better.
2. Avoid passing ships. Don't avoid what the
other team said. You must clash directly with
their responses.
3. Avoid reading evidence only. You must be
explaining and telling the judge why these issues
win the debate.
REBUTTALS
4. Avoid rereading evidence that has already
been read in constructive. You can make
reference to it by referring to it, but don't re-
read it.
5. Avoid “lumping and dumping."Don't try to
go for everything. You can't make 12
responses to each argument in a few minutes.
6. Be organized. Don't jump from issue to
issue at random. Be specific and logical about
winning issues.
REBUTTALS
7. Don't be a blabbering motor mouth. Speak
quickly but not beyond your ability. If you speak
too fast, you will stumble and not get through as
much.
8. Don't whine to the judge about fairness or what
the other team might have done that you think is
unethical. Make responses and beat them.
9. Don't make new arguments. You can read new
evidence but you can't run new disadvantages or
topicality responses. You are limiting to extending
the positions laid out in the constructive speeches.
REBUTTALS
10. Use signposting. Make sure the judge knows
where you are on the flow sheet. This is not the time
to lose the judge on the flow.
11. Use issue packages. Organize your arguments
into issue packages. Choose arguments which you
want to win. Don't go for everything. Extend those
arguments that you need to win.
12. Cross-apply arguments. If you dropped an
argument in a prior speech that you think was
important don't act like your losing. Cross-apply
arguments you made somewhere else in the debate to
answer it.

  • 10. Guides for Constructive Speech Speech types of Constructive Speech may be: Reading Method Memory Method Extemporaneous Mix method of memory and conversational or dramatic
  • 11. Guides for Constructive Speech Poise, gestures, audience contact and voice projection are highly recommended.
  • 12. Rules on Interpellation 1. Questions should primarily focused on arguments developed in the speech of your opponent. However, matters relevant and material to the proposition are admissible. 2. Questioner and opponent should treat each other with courtesy. 3. Both speakers stand and face the audience during the question or Interpellation period. 4. Once the questioning has begun, neither the questioner nor his opponent may consult a colleague. Consultation should be done before but as quietly as possible .
  • 13. Rules on Interpellation 5. Questioners should ask brief and easily understandable question. Answers should equally be brief. Categorical questions answerable by yes or no is allowed, however, opponent if he choose, may qualify his answer why yes or why no. 6. Questioner may not cut off a reasonable and qualifying answer, but he may cut off a nervous response with a statement such as a “thank you” “that is enough information” or “your point is quite clear” or “I’m satisfied.” 7. Questioner should not comment on the response of his opponent. 8. Your opponent may refuse to answer ambiguous, irrelevant or loaded questions by asking the questioner to rephrase or reform his question.
  • 14. Rules on Rebuttal Speech A. Rebuttal speaker should point out clearly the fallacies committed by his opponent stating clearly what particularly statement or argument constitute said fallacy. B. If not familiar with the fallacies of logic, the debater may counter arguments directly by stating what arguments or statement is incorrect or false.
  • 15. Role of the Moderator The moderator of the debate has the following duties: 1. To reveal the issue involve the debate; 2. To rule on points of clarification about the issues or questions and answers made during the Interpellation; and 3. To see to it that the debate is orderly and follows the rules of parliamentary procedures.
  • 16. Role of the Timer 1. To time the speakers and debaters accurately; 2. To give the speakers a one-minute warning with the ringing of the bell once before his/her time is up. 3. To prevent the debaters from exceeding the time allotted to them by ringing the bell twice.
  • 17. Tips on Interpellation and Rebuttal CROSS EXAMINATION A. The cross-examination period of a debate is a time when the person who is not going to speak next in the constructive questions the person who has just finished speaking. B. Consider cross examination an information exchange period - it is not the time to role play lawyer.
  • 18. CROSS EXAMINATION C. Cross examination may serve six objectives: 1. To clarify points 2. To expose errors 3. To obtain admissions 4. To setup arguments 5. To save prep time 6. To show the judge how cool you are so they WANT to vote
  • 19. CROSS EXAMINATION D. Most debaters tend to ignore the value of good cross- examination. Remember, 30% of the entire debate is spent in cross-examination -- it should be a meaningful and essential part of the debate. If nothing else, debaters tend to underestimate the importance that cross-examination may have on the judge. E. Cross-examination will indicate to the judge just how sharp and spontaneous the debaters are. Invisible bias will always occur in a debate round and judges would always like the sharpest team to win. Good, effective cross- examination of the opponents can play an important psychological role in winning the ballot of the judge.
  • 20. CROSS EXAMINATION F. Be dynamic. Have questions and be ready to go, answer questions actively and with confidence whenever you can. The image you project will be very important to the audience/judge. This is the one opportunity the audience/judge has to compare you with opponent’s side-by-side.
  • 21. GUIDELINES FOR ASKING QUESTIONS: 1. Ask a short Q designed to get a short A 2. Indicate the object of your Q 3. Don't telegraph your argument, don't make it too obvious. 4. Don't ask Q they won't answer properly."So, we win, right?"
  • 22. GUIDELINES FOR ASKING QUESTIONS: 5. Make Q seem important, even if it is just an attempt to clarify. 6. Politeness is a must -- emphasize the difference if they are rude. 7. Approach things from a non-obvious direction. Then trap them. 8. Mark your flow/notes as to what you want to question them about.
  • 23. GUIDELINES FOR ASKING QUESTIONS: 9. Avoid open ended Qs unless you are sure they are clueless. 10. Face the judge/audience, not your opponent. 11. CX answers must be integrated into your arguments made during a speech.
  • 24. GUIDELINES FOR ANSWERING QUESTIONS: 1. Concise A. 2. Refer to something you have already said whenever possible. This is safe. 3. Answer based on your position in the debate so far. Keep options open. 4. Don't make promises of what you or your partner will do later.
  • 25. GUIDELINES FOR ANSWERING QUESTIONS: 5. Qualify your answers. 6. Be willing to exchange documents read into the debate. 7. Answer only relevant questions. 8. Address the judge.
  • 26. GUIDELINES FOR ANSWERING QUESTIONS: 9. Try and not answer hypothetical Q. If they demand, say you will give a hypothetical A. 10. Signal each other, don't tag-team. 11. Don't say"I don't know,"say"I am not sure at this time...."
  • 27. REBUTTALS A. Most debaters, coaches, and judges would agree that rebuttals are the most difficult and yet the most important parts of the debate. B. Not only is there less time within each speech, but each debater has to sort through all of the issues to determine which ones are the most important ones! C. What a debater does or does not do in rebuttals will decide who wins the debate. Very few debaters (especially beginners) can hope to extend everything that happened in the constructive speeches.
  • 28. REBUTTALS D. Debaters don't have to do that and just because a team may have dropped a point or an argument is not an automatic reason to vote against that team. E. What matters is the type of argument that is extended or dropped in rebuttals-this will determine the winner of the round.
  • 29. REBUTTALS Think about these four issues when rebuttals happen: 1. Which arguments have more weight at the end of the round? 2. Which outcomes (disads, counter plans) are more likely given lots of internal links? 3. What about time frame-what happens first? 4. What about the quality of evidence?
  • 30. REBUTTALS Here are some other helpful hints: 1. Avoid repetition. Don't just repeat your constructive arguments. Beat the other team's arguments and tell the judge why your arguments are better. 2. Avoid passing ships. Don't avoid what the other team said. You must clash directly with their responses. 3. Avoid reading evidence only. You must be explaining and telling the judge why these issues win the debate.
  • 31. REBUTTALS 4. Avoid rereading evidence that has already been read in constructive. You can make reference to it by referring to it, but don't re- read it. 5. Avoid “lumping and dumping."Don't try to go for everything. You can't make 12 responses to each argument in a few minutes. 6. Be organized. Don't jump from issue to issue at random. Be specific and logical about winning issues.
  • 32. REBUTTALS 7. Don't be a blabbering motor mouth. Speak quickly but not beyond your ability. If you speak too fast, you will stumble and not get through as much. 8. Don't whine to the judge about fairness or what the other team might have done that you think is unethical. Make responses and beat them. 9. Don't make new arguments. You can read new evidence but you can't run new disadvantages or topicality responses. You are limiting to extending the positions laid out in the constructive speeches.
  • 33. REBUTTALS 10. Use signposting. Make sure the judge knows where you are on the flow sheet. This is not the time to lose the judge on the flow. 11. Use issue packages. Organize your arguments into issue packages. Choose arguments which you want to win. Don't go for everything. Extend those arguments that you need to win. 12. Cross-apply arguments. If you dropped an argument in a prior speech that you think was important don't act like your losing. Cross-apply arguments you made somewhere else in the debate to answer it.
