| Abstract: | These materials apply the simulation method to the study of professional responsibility. Each major area of professional responsibility is the subject of an exercise in which students are required to perform important layering tasks fully in role. Some student performances will be the subject of formal ‘disciplinary hearings’ in which other students, acting as prosecutors and defense counsel, argue the propriety of the actual decisions that the student lawyers made. Most of the exercises are simply followed by discussion. |
