Course objectives
Express your stanpoint, vindicate it or change your stanpoint in virtue of arguments of your opponents. "Debattierklub" is a good opportunity to share your standpoint with other students and in conjunction with improving of your german language skills. In the beginning there is a question which is answerable with "yes" or "no". Who says "yes" stands for "pro" who says "no" stands for the opposite side "contra". The arguing people discuss topics of different problems (policy, social and moral problems etc.) and they should explain why they stand for "pro" or "contra". Certainly in the real life it isn´t always easy to be strictly "pro" or "contra". That´s why there is a space for a democratic discussion with interesting conclusions.
