Abstract
Moot Court is an extracurricular activity that allows law students to take part in simulated court proceedings. Participants focus their arguments on a hypothetical case based on international law or municipal law depending on the nature of the case itself and the court in which it is submitted.
Participation in moot court has proven to be an exceptionally re-warding educational experience, which provides law students with the opportunity to think critically about important issues and speak confidently in front of panels of judges, but it further creates in them better understanding in the laws they theoretically study in class sessions by practically researching, writing and orally arguing on them.
This guide is primarily intended for law students in Tanzania who are or will be exposed to mooting at any level during their course of study. The Information presented includes practical tips on how a student may go about in preparing oral and written arguments and what to expect on the day of the competition.
