Abstract

Part I is a series of essays about topics that cut across particular fields of academic study. They focus on issues common throughout the curriculum, such as teaching the use of gender-neutral language and teaching cultural competency. It also includes how to incorporate insights from feminist jurisprudence and Indian law, as well chapters on more specific subjects such as legal writing and academic skills.

The remainder of the book focuses on specific subjects within the curriculum. There are several chapters about teaching race and the law courses, and several chapters on teaching professional responsibility. Part IV of the book focuses on many specific subjects: administrative law, business and labor law, remedies, criminal procedure, evidence, family law, indigenous law and international law, and research, writing, and simulations. Virtually every major upper-level subject is considered, some with multiple chapters offering differing perspectives on particular areas of the law.
