Hello all members of GPF,
Here’s July’s Newsletter!
Since last month, three new lesson materials from last year have been written up and posted on our Curriculum Page: lessons 5, 6, and 7 (final focus, crossfire, and judge adaptation respectively). If you don’t have access to the recordings of any of those classes yet or weren’t able to make it to those workshops, we highly recommend checking out those lessons. Even if you were present at those lectures, you should still read up on those materials to review the past year.
We are also currently working on prepping the lessons on simple weighing, complex weighing, round etiquette, and speech skills to post to the curriculum page, so if you want to review those topics, check back within the next month. Many round analysis lectures from the past year will also be posted there!
As per last time, If you check under our Resources Page, we have also posted new resources for the month of July; these include news articles and current events to read up on, as well as PF Debate rounds that Hanzhang and I handpicked! Check back monthly for new resource updates—there will also be a reminder every month in the newsletter.
Although GPF has no active activities or meetings this summer, we still expect you to have a basic understanding and some background knowledge of the September topic before the upcoming season begins. The topic will probably be:
Resolved: The United States federal government should substantially increase its military presence in the Arctic.
Below are a couple of articles to get you started on your research. A more comprehensive topic analysis will come in August!
As always, remember to subscribe to the GPF newsletter and read up on current events!
Best,
Joann.
