Respuestas a la pregunta
Respuesta:
The debates, both formal and informal, can be structured with different communication tones:
An informative tone. The information to be discussed is presented in full, based on facts and evidence. A speaker may be the one presenting the data and the audience may be the one who will ask questions to clear up doubts.
An argumentative tone. The data that tries to give reasons about a point of view must have a reliable endorsement that supports it so that the debate does not turn out to be a meaningless discussion between the opposing positions.
A persuasive tone. A speaker (or group he or she represents) may intend to convince an audience. For that, it will use convincing techniques from logic, emotion or sympathy.
Elements of a formal debate
A formal debate has the following elements or steps to follow in order to carry it out:
Planning the topic or hypothesis to be debated, clearly and according to the audience it is addressed to.
Organization of the teams (from the speaker or group representative, audience, moderator, among others).
Determination of the structures or moments so that each part has the floor. For example, a speaker can answer audience questions only after finishing his speech.
Initiation of the debate itself, which may or may not be the responsibility of the mediator or moderator.
Execution of the debate, with the respective moments so that each party can speak.
Conclusion of the debate, which may consist of a few words from the moderator, to close the meeting.
For a debate to develop properly and in harmony, it is necessary that each party respect certain general rules of conduct:
Be tolerant of the differences of others.
Listen without interrupting.
Do not underestimate or make fun of those who think differently.
Avoid raising your voice to interrupt the speaker.
Avoid dispersing or talking about topics unrelated to the debate.
Criticize with criticism or with better proposals.
