Description

This book for law professors has fourteen chapters following a typical law school term. Chapter topics include Course Objectives, Syllabi, Lectures, Socratic Method, Differentiating Instruction, Integrating Instruction, Assessment, Multiple Choice Questions, Essay Questions, and Scoring and Grading. The book includes a beginning chapter on Pedagogy to help professors appreciate theoretical schools on education and the history of law teaching, and a concluding chapter on Teaching Vision.

The book offers useful insights for anyone who teaches law and wants to improve at it. Reflection questions and exercises frame each chapter, engaging readers to implement suggestions and designs. Exhaustively researched, the book trains readers to articulate proper learning objectives, use syllabi more productively, adopt best practices when they lecture and use Socratic questioning, make learning more visual, and create better assessment instruments, among other reforms.
