NexConversaTe, a debate school built from real-life arguments

Field notes

The school turns ordinary conflicts—a stalled meeting, a family lunch, or a work-group message—into timed debate material brought in by the class. Its entry track runs for seven meetings across eight weeks, with eleven participants, three-minute prepared speeches, two-minute responses, printed structure sheets, and audio recordings for review. A second track is listed at R$2,480 for four months of weekend sessions, though the supplied extract ends before its full description.
