Description:

Participating in the exercises is a useful opportunity for students to work with practitioners. This is a practical form of teaching (exercises) that are held in the third year of study (6 semesters). These exercises are organized in such a way that students who have mostly passed the exam in Family Law and have basic knowledge of family law, study specific case law, compile submissions (lawsuits, marriage contracts, judgments) and solve hypothetical cases. In this way, they are required to apply and use the existing knowledge of family law, and they are approached by some new substantive and procedural tools that are necessary for the successful application of the law in practice. All of the above is done under the mentorship of members of the department and eminent experts in practice (including judges of the municipal and county courts in Zagreb, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Croatia and fellow lawyers).

Cognitive Skills:

After successfully completing the course, students will be able to:

Knowledge

- define the importance of most important family law institutes within the legal

system

- define open questions

- list the most important family law institutes

- name the fundamental principles of family law regulation

 

Understanding

- discuss the important social and legal topic, on the basis of valid legal

arguments

- describe the contents and scope of particular family law institutes

- explain the meaning of passing the family law regulations, as a means of

intervening in the relationships between family members

- report on the open questions, on the basis of the legal analysis

- identify the trends in family law

- recognise the basic characteristics of the most important institutes of family

law

 

 

Application

- interpret family law provisions

- use current professional literature

- demonstrate knowledge and skills acquired during the studies

- demonstrate high level of understanding of family law provisions

 

Analysis

- distinguish basic and permanent characteristics of family law institutes from

the variable ones

- analyse the meaning of a particular legal provision and its consequences

- compare universal family law provisions during history to the contemporary

state

- select key questions in which family law systems require improvements

 

Synthesis

- propose the needed changes of family law systems de lege ferenda

- formulate basic challenges family law is facing

- construct new models of functioning of state bodies in family law matters

- assemble relevant court practice of European courts (European court of

human rights and European court of justice) in regards important family law

institutes

 

Evaluation

- judge the quality of legislative changes and practical procedures

- assess the advantages and shortcomings of family law systems de lege lata

- evaluate one's standpoints from the viewpoint of tolerance

- assess the quality of common European family law principles

Practical and Generic Skills:

After successfully mastering the course, students gain:

- competence of independent professional work:

- competence to critically assess the most important family law issues

- competence to adapt to a new situation and changes in legislation

- competence to draw argumented conclusions and timely and adequately work in practice

Matching Assessments to Learning Outcomes:

During practical work conducted by experts from practice (as a rule judges and attorneys), students together solve problem tasks. On the basis of determined situation facts, they prepare rulings and decisions, and outline applications. Thus the knowledge acquired in the second year are applied in the third year, together with all other skills gained within other courses.

Since the final grade is not numerical, but 'pass' or 'fail', the final grade is determined for each student by evaluation of their work and activity in practical work, success in solving problem tasks and regular attendance of this form of teaching.
