Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Policy Maker
Policy priority: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: I have no strict paradigms. I enjoy evidence both evidence based debate and theory based debate.
LD
Approach: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Philosophy:
LD judging is my favorite!! I judge based on the basic rules that states that the better debater is the one who, on the whole, proves his/her side of the resolution more valid as a general principle.
