Starting fights: the debate as teaching tool.
During a one-year experiment in postgraduate psychiatric education, residents participated in live debates instead of attending traditional lectures and seminars. A variety of controversial topics in psychiatry were covered. Both residents and faculty rated the debate as a thought-provoking and highly effective teaching tool, and a fun one, to boot.
