To be truly honest about my thoughts of the debate, I think either side has won the debate. First, I believe that a class against a teacher is pretty unfair since a teacher has more knowledge in the topic then the students. We may have put up a good fight in class but there have been a few flaws in doing this. It is totally unorganized. Everyone in the class was talking among each other while we try to tell the speaker things they need to mention when presenting it. You should know darn well that certain people in the class will probably focus more in winning the debate then actually focusing in the main ideas in defending "Should Huck Finn Be Taught in School?" Most of the points were brilliant but it’s just random thoughts pouring out from everyone and the speaker is not getting what our group said. They focus too much in presenting "their" ideas rather than the group's and refuse to listen to other people's ideas. What is the point of grading the class by who's speaking or who's giving ideas to the speaker when everyone is just hogging over giving their own idea rather than acknowledging others.
