Teaching Writing Through Substance: The Integration Of Legal Writing With All Deliberate Speed, Michelle S. Simon Jan 1992

Teaching Writing Through Substance: The Integration Of Legal Writing With All Deliberate Speed, Michelle S. Simon

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The stated pedagogical task of the first year of law school is to teach students to "think like lawyers." Legal writing, which is a traditional first-year course, serves this purpose by helping students develop writing and analytical skills that are essential to their ultimate success as lawyers. The greatest difficulty faced by those who teach legal writing, however, is communicating to students that legal writing is a means towards synthesizing the law and preparing them for the complex legal and human problems of modern law practice. To help overcome this difficulty, Pace Law School has developed a course that fully …


Skills For Diversity: Description, Evaluation And Recommendations, Eric S. Janus Jan 1992

Skills For Diversity: Description, Evaluation And Recommendations, Eric S. Janus

Faculty Scholarship

In May 1991, the William Mitchell College of Law Faculty voted to offer to all first year students the following fall a program to assist students "in learning how to work effectively with diverse others in professional situations." The faculty directed that the program be supervised by a member of the full time faculty, and that reaction to the program be evaluated by the Curriculum Committee. During the Summer 1991, the dean appointed me to supervise the program, and I asked Assistant Dean Joan Bibelhausen to assist me. The two of us worked closely with an informal group called the …

The Work Of A Cuny Law Student: Simulation And The Experiential Learning Process, Vanessa Merton Jan 1990

The Work Of A Cuny Law Student: Simulation And The Experiential Learning Process, Vanessa Merton

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The work you do as part of a simulation is selectively, but not exactly, the same as what you would do as a lawyer confronted with a comparable problem. By drastically shortening the time frame of the actual process, the simulation allows you to experience the consequences of your choices relatively quickly. In a simulation, you are asked to assume certain roles, and to engage in a variety of tasks, some in-role and some out-of-role (except for the ubiquitous role of "law student").

Joining Hands And Smarts: Teaching Manual Legal Research Through Collaborative Learning Groups, Thomas Michael Mcdonnell Jan 1990

Joining Hands And Smarts: Teaching Manual Legal Research Through Collaborative Learning Groups, Thomas Michael Mcdonnell

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

My hypothesis was that a group of law students who research a problem together will learn legal research better than students who work individually. I further hypothesized that if the group research could be undertaken during class time under the direct supervision of the instructor and the teaching assistant, the students would be less intimidated by manual research tools and would be better prepared to work on their own. The following three-step method was employed: (1) the students read about the tool; (2) the instructor discussed the tool in class; and (3) immediately following the discussion, students went to the …

Jurisdiction For Citizens To Enforce Against Violations Of The Clean Water Act, Jeffrey G. Miller Jan 1989

Jurisdiction For Citizens To Enforce Against Violations Of The Clean Water Act, Jeffrey G. Miller

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The First Annual Pace National Environmental Moot Court Competition was a splendid event. The students, faculty and administration of Pace were proud to host it. The Competition differs in many ways from other competitions. First, it features a field of law that has only recently become a major focus of legal practice. It is appropriate that Pace, a young law school, sponsor a competition in a new field of law. Second, the Competition's arguments are between three teams (government, industry and environmental advocates) rather than the traditional two. This is appropriate to the many sided nature of environmental disputes. Third, …

Charting New Territory In Judicial Proof: Beyond Wigmore, Peter Tillers, David Schum Feb 1988

Charting New Territory In Judicial Proof: Beyond Wigmore, Peter Tillers, David Schum

Cardozo Law Review

In this Article, Professor Tillers and Professor Schum investigate judicial proof in a way that combines three distinct methods of analyzing the probative significance of evidence. They call these three modes of analysis legal structuring, temporal structuring, and relational structuring. Although scholars in various disciplines have recognized the importance of these three types of analysis in the assessment of evidence, no extant theory provides a systematic account of the relationships between legal analysis, temporal analysis, and relational analysis. Professor Tillers and Professor Schum describe some of the matters that a three-dimensional analysis of proof must take into account and they …
