Written by an award-winning professor with over 25 years of
experience, this book explains comprehensively the different facets
of law teaching from the law teacher's perspective. It uniquely
covers numerous topics which have been ignored by the legal
education literature so far, but which are of immense importance
for the success of law students, law schools and-last but not
least-the day-to-day work of law teachers themselves. These topics
include the goals of law teaching, the factors that lead to
successful law teaching, special characteristics of good law
teachers, different ways of preparing for in-class success,
face-to-face versus online teaching, the in-class teaching
experience, assessments, teaching evaluations, the design of new
courses and programmes, the teacher-student and the teacher-teacher
relationship, the importance of teaching administration as well as
the future of law teaching in the digital age. The author
approaches various themes from the viewpoint of his own experience.
He tells his very personal stories of classroom success and
failure, of enthusiasm, fun and disappointments when dealing with
law students, of accomplishments and frustrations when considering
learning outcomes and of surprises when dealing with red tape. He
thus allows the readership to grasp different aspects of law
teaching in a very hands-own way and facilitates the understanding
of the underlying often rather complex human-to-human
relationships. This book should be in the bookshelf of any law
teacher. As it covers a wide spectrum of so far unexplored legal
education issues, it is also an invaluable source at the start of a
law teaching career, but also for established law teachers who wish
to reflect on their own teaching approaches. A rich body of
cross-references to the existing literature makes the book a
powerful tool for research on any aspect of legal education. Last
but not least, the author's ironic sense of himself and of the law
teacher profession makes the book a very entertaining read for
anybody who always wanted to know what law teaching really is (and
is not) about.
