Educating for Well-Being in Law - Positive Professional Identities and Practice (Paperback): Caroline Strevens, Rachael Field Educating for Well-Being in Law - Positive Professional Identities and Practice (Paperback)
Caroline Strevens, Rachael Field
R1,289 Discovery Miles 12 890 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Bringing together the current international body of knowledge on key issues for educating for well-being in law, this book offers comparative perspectives across jurisdictions, and utilises a range of theoretical lenses (including socio-legal, psychological and ethical theories) in analysing well-being and legal education in law. The chapters include innovative and tested research methodologies and strategies for educating for well-being. Asking and answering the question as to whether law is special in terms of producing psychological distress in law students, law teachers and the profession, and bringing together common and opposing perspectives, this book also seeks to highlight excellent practice in promoting a positive professional identity at law school and beyond resulting in an original contribution to knowledge, and new discourses of analysis.

Legal Education - Simulation in Theory and Practice (Paperback): Caroline Strevens, Richard Grimes, Edward Phillips Legal Education - Simulation in Theory and Practice (Paperback)
Caroline Strevens, Richard Grimes, Edward Phillips
R1,711 Discovery Miles 17 110 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The importance of simulation in education, specifically in legal subjects, is here discussed and explored within this innovative collection. Demonstrating how simulation can be constructed and developed for learning, teaching and assessment, the text argues that simulation is a pedagogically valuable and practical tool in teaching the modern law curriculum. With contributions from law teachers within the UK, Australia, Hong Kong, South Africa and the USA, the authors draw on their experiences in teaching law in the areas of clinical legal education, legal process, evidence, criminal law, family law and employment law as well as teaching law to non-law students. They claim that simulation, as a form of experiential and problem-based learning, enables students to integrate the 'classroom' experience with the real world experiences they will encounter in their professional lives. This book will be of relevance not only to law teachers but university teachers generally, as well as those interested in legal education and the theory of law.

Wellbeing and the Legal Academy (Paperback, 1st ed. 2023): Caroline Strevens, Emma Jones Wellbeing and the Legal Academy (Paperback, 1st ed. 2023)
Caroline Strevens, Emma Jones
R1,512 Discovery Miles 15 120 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book provides a novel contribution to the wider bodies of literature on student and academic wellbeing by including a series of rich and nuanced discussions of specific aspects of the wellbeing of legal academics. It contains original research contributions on this topic drawing on insights from law, education and psychology and throws a spotlight on an emerging field of interest. In particular, it focuses attention on the need to understand the implications of workload, communication, competence, and community for academic wellbeing with the collection providing insight as to the amelioration of stress linked to these themes. Reference will be made to the key factors which influence each of these themes, such as the neo-liberal academy, the contours and staffing of the law school, the impact of COVID-19 and the role of values and ethics. Relevant theoretical perspectives relating to these themes, including self-determination theory and the notion of an ethic of care, will also be discussed.

Wellbeing and Transitions in Law - Legal Education and the Legal Profession (1st ed. 2023): Emma Jones, Caroline Strevens Wellbeing and Transitions in Law - Legal Education and the Legal Profession (1st ed. 2023)
Emma Jones, Caroline Strevens
R3,977 Discovery Miles 39 770 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book examines transitions from law school to the legal profession, and their impact on wellbeing. There is a significant body of evidence that suggests law student wellbeing is particularly problematic, partially due to the distinctive nature of law as a discipline. Similarly, there is a growing body of international evidence demonstrating poor levels of wellbeing within the legal profession, with lawyers suffering higher levels of stress, anxiety and depression than the general population. To date there has been no detailed consideration of the impact of these transitions on wellbeing, or discussion of the best ways to ameliorate any negative effects. This edited collection will explore a range of transitions, from entry into law school through to progression to managerial roles within the legal profession. Rather than focusing on discrete areas or chunks of time, this book focuses on the process of transitioning holistically.
