Sessions Information

  • January 6, 2012
    10:30 am - 12:15 pm
    Session Type: Section Call for Papers
    Session Capacity: N/A
    Location: Marriott Wardman Park Hotel
    Room: Wilson C
    Floor: Mezzanine Level
    (Papers to be published in California Law Review - The Circuit)

    One or more additional presenters will be selected from a call for papers.

    The Section will hold a program with panelists who will share methods of teaching law and humanities perspectives in “core courses” such as property, torts, contracts, corporations, federal income tax, civil procedure, contracts or criminal law, and others not traditionally understood to include these perspectives.

    Many agree that law and humanities perspectives are important vehicles for unpacking the substantive content of the core curriculum, as well as for building and honing key skills necessary for legal practice.  Though many acknowledge that these perspectives are vitally important, there is less agreement as to how faculty can successfully implement these perspectives in their classrooms.  This program will include a variety of panelists and will explore ways law and humanities perspectives can be used successfully to enrich law school teaching.
