💨 Abstract

The article compares two high school competitions: the National Speech and Debate Tournament and the National High School Ethics Bowl. Debate pits students against each other, assigned to argue for or against a specific position, often leading to aggressive attacks on the opponent's views. In contrast, the Ethics Bowl encourages teams to discuss controversial topics, make their own decisions about the best position, and respectfully explore various viewpoints.
