In my time with CyberPractices, I has been working to develop an open communication tool that allows anyone for running simple debates on the web. An Oxford-Style debate is a communication process in which participants argue for and against a given topic. So that, we have created a Wordpress plugin which adaptes the physical model and makes it possible to expand the capabilities of both speakers and audience. With this product, we want to contribute, at least, to achieve the following objectives:
— To experiment with the classic — and physical — debates protocols and design new ways of expressing opinions in fully digital environments.
— To make accessible a non highly — and techie — demanded tool to anyone eager to dive deeper in some topics.
— To enrich the communication apps world with a new generation of tools.
Task and challenges:
— Ideate and prototype the online Oxford-Style debate from the previous knowledges and practices of online debating.
— Design a roadmap for a techie solution for a social interaction problem.
— Coordinate a team of coders, designers and the interests of the product.
— Create a storytelling for the product, produce content and create the digital identity.
