Implementation of Simulation-Based Learning Process for Law Students

Description

Along with changes in economic, political, legal and sociological processes in the world, changes also occur in the higher education system. Currently, information technologies are developing rapidly and becoming a part of any person’s daily routine and an object of increased interest of young people. The development of information technology provides various advantages, including organizing the study process for students studying law. One of the ways to ensure acquiring the learning content in a high quality is the use of interactive learning tools, such as the development and practical execution of simulations.The purpose of the study is to reveal and reflect the basic principles of the development of simulations, the practical importance and advantages of application of the simulations in the training process of law students. . The following research methods are used: monographic (literature review); analytical (studying the theoretical literature, clarifying the opinions of the authors); survey method (obtaining information through questionnaires, interviews, discussions with students about the positive and negative aspects of the already developed simulations); logically constructive (for expressing conclusions and proposals).. As a result of the research, the authors come to the conclusion that the use of simulations within the learning process promotes students' interest in learning the content of the topics covered in the relevant study courses.. The study is based on literature research, analyzing the insights expressed by several authors. Attention is also focused on the goals set in policy planning documents and legal acts in the field of education.Real execution of simulations increases students' knowledge; promotes deeper understanding; develops students' skills by working with realistic problem situations and document analysis.
