Wayne State Law School, go here.
Winter
Term 2001

Wednesdays, Jan. 10, Feb. 14, March 21, and April 18 from
5:00 - 6:00 p.m.
Meeting
Place: Room 205
My
goals for the internship are:
1.
To help you engage in self-directed learning. The process
of teaching yourself through experience involves questions
such as: what am I learning; how can I reproduce what I've
learned in other situations; how can I repeat successes; how
can I avoid mistakes; what examples of good (or poor) lawyering
can I emulate (or avoid); in what situations do I function
best; what lawyering skills have I improved on through this
experience; what skills do I need to improve on next; what
are my strengths (and weaknesses).
2.
To assist you in the process of becoming a reflective practitioner.
As judicial interns, you will learn and reflect on the role
the judiciary in the legal system and society generally. We
will focus on specific professional values in our class, such
as the duty of confidentiality and loyalty.
3.
To enable you to improve your lawyering skills. We will focus
in our class sessions on legal writing and professional responsibility.
You should develop a detailed list of the skills you want
to work on.
4.
To assist in developing and improving the internship course
and the internship program to benefit future law students.
