Rights of the Accused - List of Case Digests

In a democracy, an accussed person has the privilege of protected rights.  It rests on the concept that he or she is merely an accused and not a criminal until guilt has been proven.

PGC students from 1LM3 are tasked to write THEIR individual case digests as pers class instruction.

This list is one of our class academic outcomes which is to create a small archive of jurisprudence relating to constitutional law.  Being able to submit required posts merits additional grades for recitations and possible considerations for the final grade.

This activity will also constitute our meeting for wednesday, March 6, 2013, in order to accomodate 1LM3's         schedule adjustment for that day.

Psychology and Labor Negotiations

Negotiating a good, albeit either comfortable or luxurious working conditions such as high salary, desirable benefits package and a more than suitable working environment (such as having a gym and well stocked pantry in the office) requires a great skill.

Among the tools that can help a negotiator aside from knowledge of the state's policies and financial conditions is understanding how your employer thinks.

Your tasks in this activity as students of Labor Negotiations are:

1) Post on the comment area your notes on the film viewing.

2) How the lessons learned from the film can help you in negotiating for a labor union.
