Project Plan Assignment
Topic
My topic that I’m going to research into is the law school and the process of becoming a lawyer. That includes the schooling, costs, and the specific types of lawyers. I’m choosing this topic because for as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to be a lawyer. I’ve taken a few legal classes to start but fell out it. I want to learn the steps that are required to become a lawyer once I get my bachelor’s degree. The more I know, the more I’ll be able to decide if this is really a career I want to pursue in the future.
Scope and Value
For my research, I’ll be looking into the different types of practices there are and the steps that are needed to get into law school. The different practices are important because there are so many and each one has a unique role in our society. Learning a little bit more about each practice is about will give me a better understanding and help me come to a potential conclusion.
This topic is of high value to me because lawyers are important in this country. From criminal law down to family practice, not to exclude accident lawyers. This career not only impacts my life, but my clients. It would be their livelihood in my hands if I ever had to defend them in court. It’s best to understand how each specific practice is valued in the world, which one do I feel is the most important out of them all.
Communication Medium
For my topic, I’ll probably use a powerpoint to communicate my findings. I know the internet will provide me with a lot of information that I’m looking for. As much as I hate public speaking, I’d even give a presentation to my peers about this. I feel for myself that this is a better way to communicate my passion for this topic and how important it is to me. Anyway that I can discuss this topic, I will.
Critical Thinking Questions
What kinds of skills do lawyers need to have to strive in this industry?
What kind of experience is needed to become a lawyer?
Reflective Paragraph
The area I know that I will have the hardest time in is narrowing down exactly what I need for my research. I know the topic I’ve chosen is relatively broad and I can easily get off topic quickly. This isn’t a topic that I can really research elsewhere aside from the internet or asking a lawyer in person. There honestly aren’t many topics I’m willing or wanting to learn about for the sake of just not being interested in them. I’m really looking forward into potentially finding out more information and deciding if this is the kind of future I want, if I ever make it that far.
