The task of watching video before class was to choose a role for play in the class. The video was about representing yourself in the court and the list of roles was:
- facilitator - who helps to participate in process, in that case who organizes show;
- litigant - person who is interested in court's result;
- professor - who leads the non-profit organization for helping people represent them-self in the court;
- layer or advocate.
The main part of the class was organized as a radio-show where the facilitator gave to other participators possibilities to express their opinion about self-representation in the court.
Useful vocabulary:
I was out of options;
legal fees;
crusader following your goal ;
I'm a layer, I'm gonna clean you up.
Our teacher, Simon, made this class very dynamical restricting the time of each speeches.
Productive teacher's methods:
Playing video before discussion;
Giving role for each student from video;
Good time-management during the class.
