Impact Calculus Advanced Debate

Thesis Evaluating impacts is the number one way to win debates The side that proves their impacts are most important and they who can either solve or avoid the impact will win.

2 types of impacts Quantitative Qualitative How much- millions of people suffer Qualitative The value- without human rights life is not worth living

Evaluating Impacts Magnitude- Size of the impact nuclear war Asteroid destroys Earth Climate Change Fairness Education

Evaluating impacts Probability- how likely the impact is How likely is nuclear war? How likely is an economic downturn?

Evaluating Impacts Timeframe-when the impact is going to occur When are the largest impacts of global warming going to occur If we have a recession, how soon would we feel the impacts?

When debating Determine which of the 3 are the strongest for your impact. Explain why this matters in debates

Magnitude We must always evaluate magnitude first. Any risk of extinction means humanity will not longer exist, thus even if the probability is extremely low, it is not worth the risk of destroying the Earth

Probability We can give you almost certain probability that our impacts will happen. Even if our impacts are not as large as our opponents. You know for certain if you do not vote for us, people will suffer. You only have a small risk of my opponents impacts.

Timeframe Our impacts will happen before our opponents. Even if the magnitude of their impacts are slightly larger, since our impacts will happen first, their impacts will not longer matter.

In your final speech Contrast your impacts with your opponents. Explain why your impacts are more important. Prove that your opponent cannot avoid their own impacts.

Activity Find a partner You will debate the following impacts Work on your own for about 10 min. Then we will have people come up and debate

Impacts Nuclear war vs. no value to life Global warming vs. Human Rights Education vs. Freedom Middle East War vs. Economic Collapse Fairness vs. competition

Conclusion Impact Calculus Don’t forget practice tomorrow after school
