Hot Springs Intermediate School student Erik Mankiller, left, with Athena Povlovich acted as the defense in a recent mock trial in Dudley Webb's class. The objective of Webb's mock trials was to make a real-world connection between argumentative writing components and the application of those components. After the initial topic was disclosed, students were required to present a claim, support the claim with evidence and provide reasoning for factual information. Roles of judges, jurors and attorney roles with specific expectations were given to the students to better engage all students in the activity.
