1. Impacts 101 The What, the Why, and the How of Impacts

2. What is an Impact?  Uniqueness, Link, and Impact  What makes an Impact Claim Good?  What are the impacts of the 1AC?  Economy  Hegemony  Global Warming  International Cooperation?  African Instability  Zoonotic Disease Spread  And Many Others  Terrorism DA?  Nuclear Terrorism

3. Parts of an Impact  General Impact/”Impact Scenario” – Terrorism (Nuclear Terrorism)  Terminal Impacts  Nuclear Terrorism  Global Nuclear War and Extinction

4. Types of Impacts  Event Based Impacts  War  Nuclear Terrorism  Others?  Systemic/Structural Impacts  Poverty  Gendered Violence  Starvation  Rights

5. Impact Framing/Why Your Impact is More Important  Other Names  “Impact Filter”  “Outweighs”  “Impact Calculus”  “Impact Comparisons”  How to Frame Impacts  Probability  Time Frame  Magnitude  Interaction

6. Probability  How likely something is to occur  Asteroids  Poverty  Economic Decline  War  Nuclear Terrorism  Aliens?  What affects probability in a debate round?

7. Time Frame  How quickly something will occur  Global Warming  Economy  Asteroids  Poverty  What arguments speak to time frame in a debate?

8. Magnitude  How bad something would be  Asteroids  Global Warming  Nuclear Terrorism  Poverty  Extinction  “Try-or-Die”

9. Interaction  Case Turns/Solves DA  Tech Leadership Advantage vs. Terrorism DA  Hegemony (Keck, 14)  Global Warming  DA turns Case  Terrorism DA vs. Net Freedom Advantage  Economic Decline  Global Internet/Nationalization Bad  What are some others?  Hegemony and Economy  Subsumes  Global Nuclear War includes India/Pakistan Nuclear War

10. Impact Turns  Internal/General Impact  Hege Good/Bad  Economic Growth Good/Bad (“De Dev”)  Nationalization of Internet Good/Bad  External/Terminal Impact  Death Good (Malthus AKA Population)  Extinction Good (Wipeout)  War Good (Spark, Nuclear Malthus, US- China)

11. How to Impact Turn  _____________ = Inevitable  Better Now than Later  Impact Defense/Turn For All Other Team’s Impacts

12. Example: Economic Growth Bad  Neg: Economic Growth Bad (De- Development)  Aff Advantages: Net Freedom and Human Rights  Human Rights:  Credibility - WMD Conflict  International Cooperation – Laundry List  Net Freedom:  Economy – War  Global Connections: Laundry List (Global Warming, Diseases)

13. De-Dev  A. Economic Growth is unsustainable (collapse inevitable)  Economic Growth Causes Global Warming  Warming Causes Extinction (Collapse Now is Good)  Economic Collapse Not Cause War (Impact Defense)

14. Pro Tips  Better to win one well than to sort of win 2  Read impact defense to the other sides impacts  Impact Uniqueness  Global Warming (Yes/No)  Economic Decline (Yes/No)  When to Impact Turn
