Are the Socratic method and lecture-based classes the best way to teach law students?
Should law school classes be more visual? This week, the Wall Street Journal Law Blog (sub. req.) took note of an upcoming essay for the Maine Law Review by Suffolk University Law School professor Shailini Jandial George that asserts that the law school lecture format needs a revamp.Although initiatives from a number of sources “have led to discussions on how best to teach students, unfortunately not enough has changed in law school teaching, which includes mostly Socratic method, combined with lecture and discussion, and culminates in one exam at the end of the course, on which students often receive little or no feedback,” George wrote.

Then, when a young hipster recently took a T-shirt, the store made good on its promise, even though he threw the T-shirt at them and fled when caught in the act of stuffing it down his pants.“We’re really happy that our social media worked the way it did, and we were able to alert the other businesses that this person was around,” she told the newspaper. … [Read more...] about Vintage store operator says threat of social-media shaming is best way to deter shoplifting
