Dethroning Langdell, Beth H. Wilensky 2023 University of Law Michigan Law School

Dethroning Langdell, Beth H. Wilensky

I come not to bury the case method. I come merely to dethrone it. While the case method’s monopolistic hold on the law school classroom has loosened somewhat in recent years, it is still the dominant approach to pedagogy in many law school classrooms—and especially in the first-year law student experience. That is also true of the case method’s traditional pedagogical partners, the Socratic method and the cold call: their dominance has declined somewhat, even while they still have remarkable staying power.

This Essay identifies one fault with our continued acquiescence to these pedagogical mainstays of law school classrooms: it …


Restoring Confidence In Educational Technologies, Ariel Newman 2023 University of Missouri - Kansas City, School of Law

Restoring Confidence In Educational Technologies, Ariel Newman

Faculty Works

This article explores how adaptable digital learning tools, originally designed for K-12 education, can enhance engagement and comprehension in law school classrooms. In response to lingering skepticism toward educational technology following the pandemic, the article advocates for a strategic approach that integrates interactive and student-centered methods rather than reverting entirely to traditional instruction.

The History Of Religious Hiring At American Catholic Law Schools, John M. Breen, Lee J. Strang

Faculty Publications & Other Works

A mission-driven institution requires personnel who are competent for the realization of the mission. The following article examines the practice of Catholic law schools hiring Catholics as law professors throughout the over 150-year history of Catholic legal education in the United States. The history shows that Catholic law schools alternately sought to hire Catholics as law professors or to hire individuals without regard to their religious affiliation as these schools’ self-understanding of mission changed over time.

Nestlé V. Doe: A Death Knell To Corporate Human Rights Accountability?, Phillip Ayers

Seattle University Law Review

The Supreme Court in Nestlé v. Doe held that foreign plaintiffs who claimed to be victims of overseas tortious conduct by corporate defendants had no jurisdiction to sue in federal courts using the Alien Tort Statute. This Comment looks at the history of the Alien Tort Statute, from its inspiration, long dormancy, and recent reinvigoration beginning in the 1980s. The Comment then explores the background of Nestlé and its issues with child slavery in its cocoa supply chain. From there, the Comment analyzes the Nestlé v. Doe decision, and posits an alternative outcome. Finally, this Comment looks for a new …
