General
Guidelines:
1.
All
students are mandatorily required to participate in the presentation session
which is of 8 marks.
2.
Being
a law student, one of the key visions should be how to become a good orator.
The course teacher has full discretions to take presentations at any time of
the semester based on their individual plan of achieving the objectives of the
course.
3.
Generally,
presentations are taken before the final examination. The art of articulating
arguments in front of an informed audience and camera will be tested.
4.
The
course teacher may set the title of the presentations or even ask students to
find out their own topics from any particular area of the course which has
contemporary significance.
5.
Students
will either submit video recording of the presentation using BLC or present in
front of all using Google Meet or Zoom.
Assessment
Plan:
1.
The
assessment activity should primarily look at whether students are able to
present with confidence.
2.
Enhancing
the lawyering skill of the students is the key component of the assessment
strategy.
3.
Students
should be able to present their arguments within the stipulated time. Students
should be properly directed on how they will effectively respond to the
questions from their friends and the moderator.
Assessment
Rubrics:
Every faculty may set criteria for the
assessment. He or she may decide what
criteria or essential elements must be present in the student’s work to ensure
that it is high in quality. However, an effort is taken to present an example
of the general rubric’s criteria for marking presentations.
