Comments/contents: This course introduces a fairly broad spectrum of substantive and procedural issues of Anglo-American law. The three blocks of instruction cover criminal, contract and tort law. These blocks each end with a formal "negotiation," whereby students are assigned to teams and must prepare "portfolios," ie documentation to negotiate a problem on behalf of their "clients." Students are assessed on their active oral participation in these negotiations and one oral presentation of 10 minutes. Very active student participation and preparation is required.

Language Level B2 or better.
Media:        Classes will probably be held virtually via Zoom.  

Für einen reibungslosen Ablauf benötigen Sie eine stabile Internetverbindung und ein Arbeitsgerät mit  funktionierendem Mikrofon und einsatzbereiter Kamera.
Dies ist für die Teilnahme an einer interaktiven Lehrveranstaltung obligatorisch.

 
Didactic concept: Participation: Active participation in  the Zoom-Sessions is required. Students  may miss up to 2 sessions.
Presentation: Each student must give a 10-minute-long presentation about a landmark case of Constitutional Law
Assigned Discussions: Each student must prepare for & participate in an assigned group discussion on specific topics
