Elementary School KYCC Workshop
Debate 4 All x Published Points of View
Date: July 17, 2023
We were so lucky to have the chance to have two different opportunities with different students. With the help of both PPOV and KYCC, we got to host two different workshops that were each four hours long! The second portion of the workshop was with elementary school kids. We had the honor of teaching these 20 students and watching them pick up these skills so quickly! They participated in "this vs. that" speech debates where they had to debate in groups about a certain topic. The difference from the beginning versus when we left was unbelievable. Kids that weren't talking at first became more and more vocal as the workshop continued. Even with one workshop, we saw tremendous improvement!
Speech & Debate Workshop (Week 2)
Date: February 2, 2022
We had multiple sessions of this speech and debate workshop, teaching students about the basics of public speaking, argumentation, refutation, and modified parliamentary debate. It also provided them with necessary life skills such as critical thinking and teamwork, creating opportunities for both fun and learning!

Speech & Debate Workshop (Week 3)
Date: February 16, 2022
This was our third session with the students and their confidence started to really show. They put many of the tenets of public speaking into practice and utilized their new argumentation and refutation skills. The students said that they learned a lot throughout the past workshops!
Speech & Debate Workshop (Week 4)
Date: March 2, 2022

This workshop was taken place at Koreatown Youth and Community Center. We worked alongside with Published Points of View in order to educate students on public speaking and journalism. W we were so lucky to have the chance to work with middle schoolers and educate them on public speaking. There were approximately 35 students that practiced their skills after the lessons, doing so through quick fire debates, collaborative research, and presentations at the end! It was a great experience seeing many kids improve their public speaking capabilities for the first time!
