PF Paradigm List
All Paradigms: Show HideIE Paradigm:
Extemp: I'm fine if you use a notecard (unless of course it is an elim round or varsity). Please make sure that you're signposting. My debate background makes me need strong links and impacts for any claims and evidence you're presenting. I really love a good AGD that is strongly connected to your topic.
Interp: I do not have experience in interp events, but I do have a background in theatre. Your character(s) need to come alive for me, but that doesn't necessarily mean being the most loud and dramatic. If I see a clear connection between the way you're performing as the character & the message of your piece, you'll be awesome in the round!
Debate Paradigm:
I competed in LD and CX when I was in high school 2014-2017
This is my second year teaching & coaching high school debate.
I deliberate on overall presentation: arguments + delivery.
Put me in the email chain: carrie.reavis@leanderisd.org
Keep your own time. I will keep my own and simply stop flowing if you go over your speaking time. Don't go over your allotted prep time.
Theory is fine.
Be considerate and respectful to everyone in the room.
Please give me roadmaps and signposts.
I have no preference over types of arguments, but overall you should connect the dots for me. Emphasize those warrants and impacts. Tell me why you get the ballot.
