Judging Philosophy

CX

Rounds judged: 2
Judging approach: Tabula Rasa
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 begin with an impartial view and expect to be convinced by the evidence. The quality and style of delivery are important. I’m more interested in the quality than the quantity and expect the delivery not to be overly rapid.

LD

Approach: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Philosophy:
I’m interested in the quality of the debate. Whoever does the best job, regardless of my personal views, the one who does the best job wins. Being objective is crucial for the judge.
