Riassunto

Specifically to train future litigators, the text: - is written in a treatise format so that a reader can digest the book from cover to cover or simply go to the index or table of contents and focus on a particular topic - puts the use of technology in the context of developing and executing a trial strategy, considering the questions lawyers ask themselves: What is my theme? What type of language and presentation style will move the judge or jury toward ruling in favor of my client? What kinds of witnesses should I call? How do I prepare my case? How do I prepare for the defense case? What is the most effective type of closing? - includes both theory -- the art and tactics of advocacy and how technology can be used to enhance them -- and how-to guidance through the steps in creating the visuals best suited to each stage of the trial, plus tips for placing and using the equipment in the courtroom - takes an in-depth, hands-on approach to using technology through four web-based mock trial problems (two personal injury cases and two criminal cases) that provide the video depositions, document image files, scene files, audio files, and text files that students use to create and manipulate electronic presentations - demonstrates how to create PowerPoint and Sanction II presentations through step-by-step tutorials illustrated by annotated screen captures; students get a free one-calendar-year license for Sanction, so they can show their presentations at job interviews - teaches how to create both linear presentations and nonlinear presentations The author also provides: - updates on changes in the software and printable color PDF versions of the how-to chaptersat the website - an extensive Teacher's Manual with tips from his own teaching experience, advice on tailoring the materials to different types of courses, suggested lecturers and tactical analysis of the case problems, PowerPoint slides for use in class, and sample syllabi showing alternative use - additional web-based resource materials for instructors: -- modifiable PowerPoint presentations on the visual trial; using the computer to organize a case file; using a computer for opening statement, during direct examination, for cross examination, and for closing argument -- annotated screen captures of CaseMap and other software packages -- a members-only section for instructors and practicing attorneys to exchange insights and information about developments in litigation technology
