What is the difference between debate and forensics?
I take debate in my high school and everyone tells me i should do forensics next year. But the most detail i have gotten from anyone is that it is a "laid back" debate. Can someone explain to me in greater detail?
Maybe they mean the "National Forensic League".
"However, another kind of forensics, involving an investigation of political, economic and philosophical evidence, is widely practiced in high school and college. Debate forensics is a competitive academic activity with tremendous educational value." –
