LAW 411 Directed Writing Law School Recommended for route(s): [ Academia ] [ Litigation ] [ Regulatory & Policy ] Business Law: Venture/Entrepreneurship Why it is relevant for ... [ Academia ] [ Litigation ] [ Regulatory & Policy ] as a Related Elective for those interested in Communication Skills : Whether you intend to litigate, do policy work or pursue an academic career, you may be interested in working collaboratively on a professional writing project, such as a brief, proposed legislation or an academic article. You can earn Directed Writing credit if you're part of a team that wants to develop your ideas in an independent writing project supervised by faculty. General course Description: Teams of students may earn "Directed Writing" credit for collaborative problems involving professional writing, such as briefs, proposed legislation or other legal writing. Only projects supervised by a member of the faculty (tenured, tenure-track, senior lecturer, or professor from practice) may qualify for Directed Writing credit. It will not necessarily be appropriate to require each member of the team to write the number of pages that would be required for an individual directed research project earning the number of credits that each team member will earn for the team project. The page length guidelines applicable to individual papers may be considered in determining the appropriate page length, but the faculty supervisor has discretion to make the final page-length determination. Students must meet with the instructor frequently for the purposes of report and guidance. Unit credit is by arrangement. A petition will not be approved for work assigned or performed in a course, clinic, or externship for which the student has or will receive credit. Special Instructions: A Directed Writing project may count as the equivalent of a "W" (Writing - For students entering prior to Autumn 2012) course with the approval of the supervising faculty member. A Directed Writing project may not count as the equivalent of a "PW" (Professional Writing - For students entering Autumn 2012 and thereafter) course. Course Style: An Experiential course is one in which students undertake tasks derived from or akin to those done by practicing lawyers. Course Frequency: Offered three times a year |
