Theory and practice of trial advocacy.
The objective is to acquire the theoretical framework of advocacy and to observe the performance of advocacy so that one can judge what is and what is not competent. The course further hopes to allow students as much practice of advocacy skills in the classroom as can practically be arranged and to encourage students to practice their advocacy skills. The lecture is set to familiarise students with the basic techniques of advocacy including questioning techniques and preparation. Through all of the foregoing, the objective is to enable students to perform all advocacy tasks with a degree of competence which shows they are ready for practice as an advocate.
