Definition of a pedagogical model in the legal field through the integration of three forms of learning-service around simulation of trials

Abstract

For a few years, the GID "Judicial Classroom of the ULE" has been working with the development and innovation of the practices of the subjects of procedural law, always being the simulation of trials its "star" activity. Comforted by its good reception among the participating students, as well as by the excellent academic results obtained, in the last three courses, we have "redesigned" the simulation to redirect it towards the fascinating world of "service-learning". And the key to achieving this has been the implementation of three different formulas, but perfectly compatible with each other (ApS with older people; ApS between students; and extra-university ApS), which are described in detail in this article. And all this, without neglecting to make a brief review of the way in which we have been forced to alter the proposed pedagogical model, to adapt it to the non-face-to-face teaching modality imposed during the duration of the State of Alarm statement in our country.
