TECH AND THE FUTURE: SHOULD WE WORRY?

On October 27, the junior competitive debate team attended a tournament at St. Paul’s High School. The resolution for this tournament was, “Be it resolved that this House believes technology will be beneficial for our future.” We worked together for two weeks prior to the tournament, brainstorming the various aspects of this challenging resolution. When you are the opposition for the concept of technology that encompasses so many different elements, you have to prepare for every potential permutation of the term. You continue to wonder what you will actually encounter from the government in terms of a definition for technology until it is time to debate. Our preparation ensured that we were ready for whatever was in store for us.
