Assessment Task 1

Clinical Office Placement

Details of Task: This will be carried out online. Students will be rostered to work with different solicitors across the national network of environmental law offices of the EDO, at the discretion of the Clinic Solicitor (an employee of EDO) and the course convenor. Students will be expected to participate for one full day each week of the Semester at/for the Clinic. During each of those days, the student would carry out legal research and other related paralegal tasks to assist the solicitor and will also receive guidance from the solicitor about their research project (Assessment Task #3). Student work with the Clinic will be assessed at the end of Semester against the criteria outlined below. The Clinic solicitor(s) will assess student’s performance in relation to these tasks.

In order to complete the task, students must work one rostered day each week online with staff of the Environment Defender’s Office (based in offices across Australia) between Weeks 2 and 12 inclusive. Students must check in online by Zoom (or similar videoconferencing software) or telephone with their supervising EDO solicitor once per week, between Week 2 and Week 12 on a regular rostered day, at a time to be agreed with the solicitor. On each of those days, there is to be a minimum of a morning ‘check in’ and an afternoon ‘check in’ unless an alternative is negotiated in advance. Student attendance and participation with the supervising solicitors of the EDO Network will be recorded.

Format : Remote working. Attendance and active participation is expected.

Nature of Task: Compulsory. Failure to fully complete the prescribed rostered work with Clinic solicitors (10 out of 11 days) in the environmental law network without an exemption based on special circumstances, will result in an NCN grade for the course.

Weighting: 30%

Release Date: N/a

Due Date: Ongoing assessment until end of Week 12, (i.e. Friday 29 October 2021).

Students who are unable to attend on a particular day due to illness or special circumstances should advise the EDO Coordinating Solicitor and Course Convenor. This should be in advance where possible or where that is not possible, then as soon as is reasonably practicable. Students who miss an on-site day because of illness, misadventure, or public holiday are required to make up that day. The student in these circumstances will need to negotiate this with their supervising solicitor.

Estimated return date: Interim Feedback will be provided when students attend a brief mid-Semester feedback interview (during Week 6 or 7) with the Clinic Solicitor and the Course Convenor, during which feedback on this assessment item will be provided. Formative feedback will be provided at an end-course interview in Semester week 11 and 12. The final mark will be provided at course completion via Wattle.

Assessment Criteria: Virtual clinic participation will be assessed using the Onsite Checklist. The mark will be based on overall assessment by the Clinic Solicitor (i.e. supervising legal practitioner) of the student’s participation on-site, in consultation with the Course Convenor. The indicators of good practice are not weighted and will not be marked individually. Indicators of good practice, tailored to onsite work with the Environmental Defender's Office network in the light of course objectives, are listed below. These are grouped under the following headings:

• Office approach: Office procedures, phone answering & information gathering including file management;
• Contribution to client interviews including pre-interview preparation;
• Approach to client matters – planning and strategy, analysis of client issues and identification of relevant law/next steps.  
• Conducting follow-up client work including problem-solving skills - analysis of options/actions required, research skills e.g. initiative, efficiency, thoroughness
• Non-client work including law reform work as assigned by the solicitors: effort, relevance, efficiency and quality of work carried out;

Assessment Task 5

Participation and Attendance in Seminars and Orientation workshop

Details of Task:

This task has two components (a) Orientation Workshop attendance, and (b) Weekly Seminar attendance and participation.

Both involve in-person attendance at the EDO office, but for the orientation day which will be held on campus, and the Indigenous Cultural Heritage seminar, which will be held offsite. 

• (a) Orientation Workshop attendance In order to complete the task, students must attend and participate in the Orientation Workshop in Week 1 of the Course. Attendance is compulsory. Professional practice legislation and insurance issues associated with the legal practice dictate the need for all students to attend the Orientation workshop in order to participate within the practice as a volunteer paralegal. It is also important to fully understand their role within the clinic and the legal office(s). Although parts of the workshop will be recorded, this does not remove the requirement to attend. Recording will be undertaken only to enable student study of Policies, Guidelines, legislation and other points in the Orientation, to reinforce learning. 
• (b) Seminar participation In order to complete this part of the task, students must attend and actively participate in the weekly seminars held each week of the Semester (Weeks 2-12). This includes the final presentation seminar held in Week 12. The Seminars will be carried out in person at the offices of the EDO, but for the Orientation workshop which will be held at the ANU College of Law. Attendance will be recorded. Student participation and preparation for the seminars will be expected. A weekly seminar is to provide students with opportunities to participate in a structured discussion based on presentations by the Convenor, guest lectures and readings. Whilst the participation in the seminars is not assessed, students are encouraged to engage with the seminar content, including by contributing examples /insights from their onsite experience of working with the EDO Solicitors. To take best advantage of the discussion during the seminars, you should read the required readings for the week prior to attending class. In addition, you should seek to read the recommended reading for the week. You may also choose to post to the discussion board created on Wattle for each main topic.

Format: In person. Attendance and active participation is expected.

Nature of the Task: Compulsory. Failure to attend 100% of the onsite seminars (including orientation and the research paper presentation seminar) and clinic days will result in an NCN grade for the course. In line with “Students Expectations & Clinics Requirements”, exceptional circumstances beyond a student’s control can warrant an exception to the rule except in the case of orientation attendance. Further information can be found here:

https://law.anu.edu.au/sites/all/files/media/browser/student_expectations_and_clinics_requirements_1.pdf

Weighting: 0%

Due Date: Ongoing assessment until end of Week 12, (i.e. Friday 29 October 2021).

Students who are unable to attend on a particular day due to illness or special circumstances should advise the Course Convenor. This should be in advance where possible or where that is not possible, then as soon as is reasonably practicable.
