    Preparing for Oral  
    Argument, Part II
    INTRODUCTIONS, ROADMAPS, AND CONCLUSIONS
                  Components of Oral Argument
               A winning oral argument at the Vis Moot has 3 necessary components:
                  1.    An attention-getting introduction;
                  2.    A clear roadmap;
                  3.    A strong conclusion.
             Arbitrators look for all three things, and will dock points if one is missing.
                 The Introduction
                The Introduction should answer a very important question:
                 Why are we here today?
                 The Introduction
       In answering the question, create a “hook” or “theme”:
      ◦ A “Hook” is a critical part of any introduction;
      ◦ It is an opportunity to tell your client’s story and appeal to the Arbitrator’s sense of justice, humanity, 
       fairness, logic, or whatever it is that you use to frame your client’s story, and the argument to follow.
      ◦ Examples of very effective hooks might include a simple metaphor, a succinct retelling of the facts in 
       your client’s favor, or allusion to a common fable or parable. 
      ◦ Creating a good hook and weaving it into your Introduction is difficult, and will require a lot of practice.
                  The Roadmap
       Immediately after delivering your Introduction (with your hook!), you should state your 
      Roadmap.
       The Roadmap is:
      ◦ A simple and direct statement, briefly announcing the order in which you will present your arguments.
