Desert Island Artifact
About The Activity
The activity starts with a fabricated situation and the circumstances regarding the situation. Our law class plus Mr. Ruditsch (obviously because he is a legend) are stranded on an island somewhere in Australia where all resources necessary for survival are obtainable. The activity is to create a legal code to make the island survivable and functioning until help comes to rescue (hopefully). And afterwards compare with other legal codes and test the functionality.
