My students have been accepted into the Empire Mock Trial World Championship in NYC in the fall. We meet starting the first week in July and work throughout the summer to prepare for an event that helps create effective 21st-century learners. The students speak extemporaneously throughout the competition about the impact of chemicals on our environment because of the fact pattern, which consists of the fact that a construction company allowed a condominium complex to be built on ground containing Trichloroethylene contamination.
The trip will allow our students to network with other students from all over the world. This event will help our students sharpen their persuasive speaking skills through analyzation of a fictitious fact pattern to pick pertinent information and formulate a strategy on a position. This year's case deals with environmental contamination on a construction site that affected the inhabitants of the community. The team will take the roles of plaintiff and defense lawyers competing on a national level with students from all over the world.
