Scrimmages:
HOW MIGHT WE RECRUIT STUDENTS (AND SCHOOLS) IN A VIRTUAL WORLD? 0 replies 294 views- What does it mean if folks have staggered school days? What if students are doing this all at home (equity and access)?
- Up to 6 schools can participate
- Ideal model: Students physically show up to their school to virtually debate students at another school
- If not possible, schools are virtually gathered and after each round, gather together to talk through the round and have fun
- Intro: Community and team interaction
- Outro: Fun awards that are not based on how many debates you won
- We will not serve as many students at scrimmages as we do at tournaments
- Can have more of these scrimmages than tournaments
- Blocks as opposed to a full day (ex. 2 rounds on each day)
- Novices can show up and watch the debates; incentivize a community aspect
- Incentives: swag that you can only get by hitting a certain milestone
- Membership level (bronze, silver, gold) that you attain after X number of rounds
