Winter 2019 - This was probably my favorite class I've ever taken at UCLA. We started with a couple weeks of really engaging and informative lectures on the history of the ICC and international criminal law. Then, we were all assigned roles and we simulated an international criminal trial for a majority of the quarter. Students were assigned to be prosecutors, defense attorneys, witnesses, judges, or media and we were responsible for researching and preparing for the trial as necessary per role. There was one final essay and a few short assignments throughout the quarter depending on role, but a majority of the work was self-directed and happened depending on when said role needed to be in the trial. I would definitely recommend that anyone take a class with Professor Radd for any kind of simulation!
