Judge's Name: Carol Denovchek High School Graduation Date: 1980 Judge's e-mail: carol.denovchek@uticak12.org Experience: - Coach a team Rounds Judged this topic: 0 Judge Paradigm: Hypothesis tester Rate of Delivery: 3 Moderate Quantity of Arguments: 3 A moderate number Topicality: 4 Moderately Rarely Counterplans: 2 usually acceptable Generic Disadvantages: 3 sometimes acceptable Conditional Negative Positions: 3 sometimes acceptable Debate Theory Arguments: 3 sometimes acceptable Kritik arguments: 4 usually unacceptable Overall judging paradigm: I generally prefer a clear, eloquent presentation of issues in round, and dislike arguments that seem to not relate to the topic on the surface. I also expect teams to show why arguments should be voted on, instead of assuming a certain paradigm. No prior judgments shall be made. However, I do appreciate a well-played argument from a team that can prove that the action is the most advantageous choice. Moreover, I will vote for the side that presents the policy option that is clearly presented with a superior combination of theory and evidence to support their argument.
