Wagoner and Molnar: How Attorneys Judge Collegiate Mock Trials 42 Speaker & Gavel 2012 How Attorneys Judge Collegiate Mock Trials Ruth R. Wagoner & R. Adam Molnar Abstract In collegiate mock trial competition, practicing attorneys who don’t coach or know the participating schools judge the students' persuasive skill. Fifty-six attorneys were interviewed after they judged collegiate mock trials. They were asked which student behaviors they rewarded, which behaviors they punished, and overall which team presented more effectively. The attorneys' responses were grouped into thematic categories and arranged by priorities. Attorneys were consistent in what they said they valued in student performances. Inter- viewees' answers to the question about overall team performance were compared with the numeric ballots. If global assessment were included, it would change the outcome of a substantial number of trials, which raises the question if such an item would have the same effect on any graded competition.

  • Steps in a Mock Trial
    STEPS IN A MOCK TRIAL 1. The Opening of the Court Either the Clerk of the Court of the judge will call the Court to order. When the judge enters, all the participants should remain standing until the judge is seated. The case will be announced, i.e., "The Court will now hear the case of vs. ." The judge will then ask the attorney for each side if they are ready. A representative of each team will introduce and identify each member of the team and the role each will play. 2. Opening Statement (1) Prosecution (in criminal cases) Plaintiff (in civil cases) The prosecutor in a criminal case (or plaintiff' s attorney in a civil case) summarizes the evidence which will be presented to prove the case. (2) Defendant (in criminal or civil case) The defendant' s attorney in a criminal or civil case summarizes the evidence for the Court which will be presented to rebut the case the prosecution has made. 3. Direct Examination by Plaintiff The prosecutors (plaintiff' s attorneys) conduct the direct examination of its own witnesses. At this time, testimony and other evidence to prove the prosecution' s (plaintiff' s) case will be represented. The purpose of direct examination is to allow the witness to state the facts in support of the case. Note: The attorneys for both sides, on both direct and cross examination, should remember that their only function is to ask questions; attorneys themselves may not testify or give evidence, and they must avoid phrasing questions in a way that might violate this rule.

  • PELSB-Approved Teacher Preparation Providers
    DATE: March 27th, 2020 TO: PELSB-Approved Teacher Preparation Providers FROM: Alex Liuzzi, Executive Director RE: Discretionary Variances-Student Teaching The Teacher Preparation Committee met on Wednesday, March 25, 2020 to review variance requests from 28 providers from across the state who have expressed major concerns with their candidates’ abilities to complete the student teaching requirements, as well as other program requirements, as set forth in administrative rule, given the state-wide school closures and other efforts to curb the spread of COVID-19. First, and foremost, the Teacher Preparation Committee wants to acknowledge that the COVID-19 pandemic is creating unprecedented circumstances for our preparation providers, candidates, and school partners. The committee wants to thank the many providers who submitted variance requests and information about the status of their student teachers and other impacted candidates on such short notice. The information and context was invaluable. On March 27, 2020, the Teacher Preparation Committee presented these extenuating circumstances to the Board. Based on the Teacher Preparation Committee’s recommendation, the Board approved the following discretionary variances for certain teacher preparation providers: Variances of Minnesota Rule 8705.1000, subp. 3G for teacher candidates who have completed 10 weeks or more of face-to-face student teaching with the conditions listed below. Variances of Minnesota Rule 8705.1000, subp. 3G for teacher candidates who have completed 6 - 9 weeks of face-to-face student teaching supplemented by online or distance learning student teaching for a total of 10 weeks of student teaching (weeks do not have to be continuous) with the conditions listed below.

  • MACTE Minute February 2020
    Minnesota Association of Colleges for Teacher Education Dr. Rhonda Bonnstetter, President Bob Utke, Executive Assistant [email protected] 507-227-1459 [email protected] 612-759-7878 February 2020 MACTE Minute MACTE was pleased to co-sponsor an event at Southwest Minnesota State University in January focused on addressing the teacher shortage and teacher diversity in rural Minnesota. Governor Walz joined us to provide the opening address and a commitment to support these efforts. We know that you share our concern about the state’s ability to attract, prepare, and retain a sufficient quantity of well- prepared teachers to serve in classrooms across the state and a teaching force that reflects the diversity of the students in those classrooms. We were pleased that Tyra Reck joined us to present information summarized from PELSB’s Supply and Demand Report and Tiered Licensure Report for this important discussion. At the January convening, the group used an approach developed by our co-sponsor, the Minnesota Education Equity Partnership, to identify barriers and solutions in four categories: explore, become, grow, and thrive. These reflect a continuum from recruiting individuals into teaching and preparing them to begin their teaching careers to helping them grow within the communities in which they live and teach and thriving in their chosen profession. Some of the strategies identified reflect ideas to improve or build upon work already underway or in development across the state, like opportunities for middle and high school students to explore teaching and Grow-Your-Own programs, and while others have emerged as new approaches worth further consideration, including new alumni mentoring and community partnership programs and housing subsidies.
