Establishing claims and counterclaims using relevant issues and corresponding legal and court primary sources is the heart of this game; however, studens should participate in a tutorial and practice round prior to independent play.

I really liked this game. I think it would be really fun for students to use. For example, as practice, to get a deeper understanding, or to play as a whole class. This would help students develop higher order thinking skills since they are the ones responsible for arguing their case. In the game, they have the choice of a hard or normal version, which case they want to argue, definitions, summaries of the cases, selecting their constitutional basis for their argument, what side they want to argue, which supports and actions they want to use, and eventually they find out the real verdict and can see what answers they got wrong or right.

This is a great individual learning tool to build argumentative skills and learn more about legal arguements in general. It is very entertaining even for a adult and would provide to be a great study aide for students learning about a particular case. I think it could build on its features by including more cases and perhaps new elements into the game. I like the features thus far and it encourages students to earn a high score.

Overall this is not a bad site. I like how it allows students to make choices when it comes to arguments and guides them when they have picked a bad one. It offers a lot of knowledge for the students and would be an asset to the classroom. It can be confusing the first time you play so I would suggest working on it as a whole group first before allowing students off on their own or in small groups. It supports student learning the judicial system and allows them a fun way to learn how this system works.
