Do you have students who are itching to talk, argue, even pass judgement on their peers in class? Have them put those desires to good use with this Debate Rubric!
This Rubric (or "Scorecard") puts all the responsibility entirely on the students.

What I love most about this:
One word…ENGAGEMENT! In addition to that, I love the individual accountability that came through the debate, and also…it is so much fun! Within days, students ask me when we're going to have our next debate!
