Teaching Methods

The teaching will take place through lectures, according to the active learning methodology: therefore with direct participation and interaction with students through work in pairs, think pairs - share, quizzes, conceptual clouds, etc and thanks to Moodle. If it is necessary to provide online teaching, the lessons will be of shorter duration but, as far as possible, the same method will be applied with online live lectures too.
The Course will offer the chance to take part to a "Negotiation Lab" in English to study the principles of negotiation according to the method of the Harvard Law School. Students attending to the Negotiation Lab will be provided with the chance to enrol to the Italian Negotiation Competition and possibly to The International Negotiation Competition (“INC”), which is the first and largest international negotiation competition in English aimed at law students. The aim of the competition is to promote greater interest in negotiation and to provide law students with the tools to develop skills and abilities in the field of international transactions and disputes. Participants are called to face and overcome the difficulties deriving from the cultural differences between the various competitors, as well as to deal with the multiple styles of negotiation, with ethical limitations, social norms and commercial practices widespread in the various countries. The initiative was launched in 1998, when two American law schools, Creighton University and Pepperdine University, sponsored the first International Negotiation Competition).
The Negotiation Lab lasts 36 hours and it's being formalized for the granting of credits as a supernumerary activities.
The Negotiation Lab is an optional part highly recommended in the course of Civil Procedure Law and Institutions of Civil Procedure Law, taking into account the important opportunity that the INC offers also from the point of view of the internationalization of Unibg and the recruiting of our students (in in past editions it has happened that internships or hiring in important international realities were offered to students: the Competition therefore offers a first-rate showcase also in this perspective).

Assessment Methods

The examination of the end course will be oral. The question will be structured in questions concerning the entire program in order to verify the acquisition by students of the concepts taught.
The acquisition of concepts and specific lexicon will be the subject of evaluation.
In order to register for the seminar special lists will be made available to attending students during school hours.
