UTEP Mobile Printing

Welcome to the Subject Guide for Forensic Practicum: Debate. This guide is designed to help with both print and electronic resources available through the University Library. 

How can evidence be presented for maximum effectiveness in arguments? Simply laying it all out is not always enough, but hiding parts of it is not the answer, either. This program begins by illustrating the meaning and significance of evidence and the presentation of evidence in numbers, percentages, rates, and over time. An argument against zoos then gives viewers the opportunity to evaluate how evidence is used to support the arguments being made. Author Roy van den Brink-Budgen (Critical Thinking for Students) then provides his analysis of the zoo case study.

To access electronic resources outside the library you will need to authenticate your status as a UTEP student.

   There are two options for remote access:

1. It is recommended that you download the GlobalProtect VPN to your personal computer in order to access the library's e-content. (UTEP two-factor authentication registration is required first. See instructions for details.)
2. If you cannot set up a VPN connection, use the Library Proxy.
