The
LearnLaw™ program is designed to teach the basics of
fundamental legal courses as determined by the American Bar
Association. The program provides you with a basic
understanding of legal terminology, research methods, case
analysis, reasoning and issue spotting. You are exposed to
fundamental, substantive law that will allow you, upon
completion of the program to be able to read law school cases,
extract facts, understand legal reasoning and basic legal
principles.
You are
introduced to what to expect in law school, and the methods
that you will need to quickly master to be successful in the
study of law. You
are exposed to the concepts and uniquenesses of the Socratic
Method, the “black letter law” approach and how to read and
digest case law. The LearnLaw™ program consists of nine
modules that introduce the major concepts of the
law--contracts, torts, criminal law, constitutional law, real
property and civil procedure. The capstone of the
course is an introduction to case law briefing and a final
mock class in which students will be given the experience of
preparing for and participating in a simulated law school
class.
