What is the research associated with this project?:
The groups draft a research paper designed to guide a lawyer that needs to provide up to date information on the relevant category under free movement of person’s provisions (2000 words, 20%).
Why is this project necessary?:
The project gives students more of an insight into what Roscoe Pound referred to as “law in action”, as opposed to “law in books”. It will help students to understand the extent to which EU Law affects their everyday lives. This Lawyering Project encompasses active learning and cooperative learning. It will teach students to take individual responsibility and be able to work through issues that may occur in a group setting, including one person not putting in the work or the group finding it hard to agree a time to meet.
