Federal Courts

Go Back

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.
