"SLC-S24/W6 - Powerful Debate - Yes or no/pros and cons"
Hello everyone and Welcome to the last week of this season of the steemit challenge. We are happy to have made it this far and we are glad you have stayed with us up until now. It’s been an awesome experience for all of us and my team and I appreciate every single person who have been through this journey with us and especially the steemit team for this beautiful opportunity to host this season of steemit challenge.
For week 6, it’s time to pull off our debating power again while weighing the pros and the cons. Whenever a discussion is brought forward, you are either in agreement with it or not. And we also know that whatever has an advantage also has a disadvantage.
We would be looking at three different topics, if you agree with the topic, you would write in support of it and if you disagree, you write against it using a story that happened to you or someone to craft your debate.
Then you would proceed to state the (PROS) (advantages) and the CONS (disadvantages) of the topic you have written on.
