Download or read book Teaching to Every Student written by David Nadvorney and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Success in every law school course, regardless of doctrine, requires that students acquire and become expert at applying a set of skills that can be taught explicitly throughout the course. This book highlights ways that various academic skills (such as case briefing, close case reading, note taking, outlining, and exam preparation), legal reasoning skills (such as fact identification and analysis, issue spotting, and working with rules), and theoretical perspectives (such as socioeconomics, legal realism, and critical legal theory) can be incorporated directly into the syllabi of first-year courses in general, and contracts courses in particular. The book identifies particular cases and readings throughout the contracts syllabus that lend themselves to explicit teaching of one or more of the academic or legal reasoning skills or theoretical perspectives. Each chapter includes exercises showing how the highlighted cases can be used to teach the named skill, with teaching notes for each exercise. The appendix includes a sample syllabus with annotations that describe specific teaching methods and lesson plans. The book provides a practical addition to typical contracts pedagogy that will enhance that course and improve students' overall first-year law school learning. It seeks to integrate learning theory-based principles and methods into a contracts class without undue intrusion into the scope or depth of the content the professor chooses to cover. The book will assist faculty in effectively teaching to a more diverse group of students, thereby increasing retention and access to both legal education and the profession.

Download or read book Ungrading written by Susan Debra Blum and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moment is right for critical reflection on what has been assumed to be a core part of schooling. In Ungrading, fifteen educators write about their diverse experiences going gradeless. Some contributors are new to the practice and some have been engaging in it for decades. Some are in humanities and social sciences, some in STEM fields. Some are in higher education, but some are the K-12 pioneers who led the way. Based on rigorous and replicated research, this is the first book to show why and how faculty who wish to focus on learning, rather than sorting or judging, might proceed. It includes honest reflection on what makes ungrading challenging, and testimonials about what makes it transformative. CONTRIBUTORS: Aaron Blackwelder Susan D.
