Federal Courts can be an
intimidating course for both professors and students alike. This panel of
experienced Federal Courts teachers will provide a number of perspectives on
how to teach the course. The panel will cover points such as: What topics
should be taught as part of the Federal Courts class? What themes hold the
topics together? What types of teaching approaches — traditional Socratic,
problem sets, small group work and discussion — work best for teaching the
material? This panel will be particularly useful for new Federal Courts
teachers, but more experienced professors will benefit too.
