Marriam: Thomas Carlyle once said, “ A man lives by believing

something: not by debating and arguing about many things”.

Hmm.. Well, what can you say about that JULIA?!?!

Julia: Well I say NO, I believe debating will build us to be open-minded

and allow us to consider different perspectives. Therefore I conclude
that debate is the solution to our problems.

To the panel of judges, school management team, CLT facilitators,

fellow youth leaders, and guests.

Both: Good Afternoon, and Welcome! To the first and much-awaited

part of the Grand Finale Batch 2! It is an honor to facilitate the debate
contest for this grand finale.

Julia: To define a debate, it is a formal discussion on a particular matter

in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing
arguments are put forward and which usually ends with a vote.

Marriam: But, what is the topic of the debate? The topic for today is “AI
writing generators are beneficial to education.”

Julia: On the Affirmative side, we have them agreeing with the term
that, YES, AI writing generators are beneficial to education.

Marriam: Meanwhile on the Negative side, they will be arguing with a

strong word, NO, AI writing generations are NOT beneficial to
education.
Marriam: Hmm, since Julia is a CHAMPION in the Grand Finale Batch 1
and yours truly is a CHAMPION herself, why don't we challenge and
share our thoughts in this venture of the debate session!?
Since this is a debate, You have to choose your side.

Julia: I believe in the….AFFIRMATIVE TEAMM!

Marriam: Alright, well I go for the Negative side!

Marriam: As smart students, what are our personal thoughts on today's

topic?

Julia: For me, as a high school student, I think AI can really help us learn
better. It's like having a really smart friend that helps us understand
tricky things. With AI, we can get personalized lessons that match how
we learn best, which makes studying easier. Some cool apps and tools
to explain topics in a way that's easier to understand. Plus, AI can help
teachers save time on paperwork, so they have more time to focus on
teaching us. In the end, I could say AI has the GOLDEN KEY to make
school more fun and easier for all of us.

Julia: How about you Marriam?

Marriam: Well, I guess I can say that I PARTIALLY agree BUT, if we lean
on it too much, we might miss out on developing our thinking skills. We
gotta keep things balanced between using technology and learning the
old-fashioned way. Also, we can't ignore the possible biases and ethical
issues that come with relying too heavily on AI.
Julia: Okay, okay you have a point but today's debate will determine the
true winner.

Marriam: Youth Leaders and guests are you ready to witness the battle
of words by our smart IPSAns?

Both: May we present to you, this afternoon’s debate speakers.

Julia: Starting with the affirmative team. They stand for, yes, AI Writing
Generator is beneficial to education. Let us welcome their leader, YL
Simmone Jairus D. Manuel. And the members, YL Margaux Y.
Francisco, YL Esther Joy R. Valeros, YL Joanna Marie A. Ibanez, and YL

Julia: Along with the debate, the speakers must follow strict time limits.
Hence, we have here our timers, YL Zayden Frae B. J-Chavez and
YL Dane Gabriel C. Tubig. To qualify for an award, the speakers must
speak for three to five minutes, with a grace period of 30 seconds. The
timers will be keeping track of time through the colored lights. The
green light will be flashed when the speaker has spoken for 3 minutes,
the yellow light at 4 minutes, and the red light will stay at five minutes.
At the end, for the summarization of teams the time limit would be 1 to
3 minutes.

Marriam: They should be judged by the following criteria:

Organization and Clarity 10 points
Use of Arguments 10 points
Use of Cross-Examination and Rebuttal 10 points
And Presentation Style for 10 Points
A total of 40 points
