Law degrees stating also graded on 'presentations' what do these entail and require?I'm going into my second year of college and plan to study law at university but I recently found out that alongside examinations I would also be required to do 'presentations' what does this entail? Is the presentation grading also required at all universities and for all Law honours degrees?

Had to take part in a recorded group moot for Public Law (it was worth 25% of the entire Public Law module I think) debating whether or not the UK should have a Bill of Rights.
It'll differ from uni to uni though. -

I see! So is it more so a group debate? Only I was under the impression it was a individual presentation to a group of people which I would possibly dread!

Re: Law degrees stating also graded on 'presentations' what do these entail and requiKinda. We were put in a group of 5 with people from within my seminar group, given a question, conducted research, wrote a speech and split it up into sections for each person to read. We performed it in front of the course convenor, my seminar tutor and a video camera (so it could be recorded for external moderation purposes). I was nervous about it at the start too but it was alright once we got into it and we came out with both an individual mark and a group mark (the individual mark was the mark that was put forward as 25% of the module).(Original post by ell-)

A couple of the modules will differ from uni to uni.
