US 232 - Mock Trial Workshop

Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Description:

This course is intended to provide students with an understanding of civil litigation, both at federal and state levels by participation in a mock trial. Using an interdisciplinary approach to preparing and putting on a trial, all phases of the litigation process will be reviewed in detail, with special emphasis upon pre-trial and trial practices. The progression will help the students move towards the course goals because they will be preparing documents that will aid them in the trial on the matter. They will also use research and writing skills that are based on analytical and critical thinking and receive feedback on these assignments which will serve as the tools for the trial. The end result will be the mock trial on the case assigned and all students in the class will be the participants.
