Great learning tool

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.

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.

The game requires a significant amount of reading. It could be strengthened by creating short scenarios to explain the context of each case.
