Advocacy is, in many ways, a specialised form of presentation, conducted within specific rules, processes and procedures. In this Advocacy course, you will have the opportunity to experience, both from the theoretical and practical, in practice perspectives that are the key elements of good Advocacy.
In this course, you will:
-
analyse case theories;
-
consider, discuss, prepare and perform competent examination and cross-examination of both lay and expert witnesses;
-
understand the principles and procedural requirements for experts’ reports;
-
consider, discuss, prepare and present competent openings and final submissions.
To maximise your learning opportunities, the course has a substantial face-to-face component involving active class participation and advocacy performance. This is combined with an intensive online component, providing opportunites to experience case preparation and drafting relevant documents.
The ANU uses Turnitin to enhance student citation and referencing techniques, and to assess assignment submissions as a component of the University's approach to managing Academic Integrity. While the use of Turnitin is not mandatory, the ANU highly recommends Turnitin is used by both teaching staff and students. For additional information regarding Turnitin please visit the ANU Online website.
