Donation of Books on Honing Debate and Language Skills

Each of the 250 public high schools in Uruguay will receive a set of books
250 sets of three English books --Discussion, Discover Debate and Getting Ready for Speech-- by Michael Lubetsky, Charles LeBeau and David Harrington, intended for each of the 250 public high schools in Uruguay were presented to a group of English teacher trainers from across the country on July 30, 2008. The books will allow implementation of American English-based debate and speech courses in Uruguayan schools. Students will learn how to examine, question, defend and refute opinions, improve grammar, vocabulary, and listening skills along with speech delivery and organizational skills.
