| Popis | The issue of motivation lies at the heart of any successful learning. In the context of Legal English, it can be fostered via communicative activities involving mediation, i.e., a skill that bridges communication gaps arising from lack of language skills or, as the case may be, factual information. When teaching mediation, instructors may strengthen motivation even further by using the peer role model. With this technique, teachers use materials (video interviews, news articles) with recent graduates from the same faculty. The success stories of such former students can serve as a background for language activities. |
