Winter term, Block B
M,T,W,Th,F 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Professor Charles R. Nesson
3 classroom credits LAW-36000A
Nesson's Winter Evidence takes you on an exploration of the nature of
legal proof and persuasion in the context of an American jury trial.
Along the way you will confront the testimonial capacities of
perception, memory, deception, and character. You will engage the
principles and process of the rhetorical storytelling machine. You will
begin to see how the machine is built and who runs it. Expect
multimedia, group activity and engagement with both real and virtual
worlds, plus fun.
