After working in the Eng debate (6 yrs) and recently Model United Nations (2 yrs) environment for some time, I think a personal reflection is long overdue. A quick rundown would be that a) there is MUCH work to be done in order to make Eng debate and/or MUN more popular and positive for student, b) learning Westernized activities such as Eng debate and MUN should have teaching professionals within and outside of school that endorse the teaching methods of the West, and c) public education in extracurricular activities should and can be improved with appropriate and discussed outside help.
Some of the remarks in the following post may be too straightforward or direct for a Taiwanese traditional conservative's ego or face. If you feel you are incapable of handling the intensity of such articles, feel free to skip what's below. I am not here to please anyone. I merely speak of what is being observed and deduced.
