PROF. DR. HANİFE ÖZTÜRK AKKARTAL: STUDENTS ARE VERY WELL PREPARED Speaking at the award ceremony, Istanbul Kültür University (IKU) Rector Prof. Dr. Hanife Öztürk Akkartal said, “Actually, law is a discipline that dominates our entire life, but we are not very aware of it. But today, while the students were performing during the competition, I saw that they had knowledge in every field. They have embraced their roles and are really successful. For example, when the accused was speaking, I really got the impression that he had committed that crime, and I felt his regret. Likewise, the lawyer was extremely conscious while taking his notes and making his defense. The students are very well prepared. I think that such a highly qualified competition, which is perhaps the first in its field in our country, and which we organize for the third time, is extremely important for law faculties in terms of creating and placing legal awareness in our society. We are extremely happy to have contributed to this.” PROF. DR. DR. H.C. MULT. BAHRİ ÖZTÜRK: WE AIM TO BUILD LAW AWARENESS AT HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. mult. Bahri Öztürk, Dean of IKU Faculty of Law, said, "We have been holding the Fictional Litigation Competition for 3 years. There is great interest. Our aim is to raise legal awareness at the high school level and to highlight the desire of the student to become a lawyer. It is called 'generation Z', we hope that the 'generation of lawyers' will be added here. But while doing this, the world has two important agendas right now, the first is climate change and the second is digitalization. We especially try to motivate high school students about digitalization. Therefore, we want to create an environment where they can grow according to the needs of the day.” “THE YOUTH PERFORMED A PERFORMANCE WATCHED WITH ADMİRE” Explaining that he has many criteria, Bahri Öztürk said, “At first, 61 high schools from all over Turkey applied to the competition, 40 teams participated. Each team consists of 5 people, all of them more successful and qualified than the other. We see that the students have embraced this job, they are seriously prepared. Two of our jury members were members of the Supreme Court and the other was a professor of criminal law. Performing in front of such a jury is not easy, even for law school students, but the high school students put on a performance that was admired. We determined the cases and gave them to the teams. We gave one event to each team in the handout rounds. Everyone tried that event, and we gave a different event in the final. Students present their opinions on this event as a result of their research. We have many criteria. The behavior of the judge, prosecutor and lawyer is an important criterion. What is important for us here is that our student can make a legal assessment. 5 teams from 40 high schools made it to the finals. Two teams from a high school are competing, they are very successful.” |
