对外国卫生法学课程教材建设的若干思考

“外国卫生法”作为新开设的一门卫生法学专业特色课程，由于统编教材的缺少，给老师的教学和学生的学习都来了负面影响。外国卫生法学教材的编写要面向师生，既为教师而写又为学生而写。授课教师可以参与教材编写，但同时也要吸收法学专家和实务工作者参加，教材编写的内容和体系要坚持理论、立法和实践的三位一体。在教材编写时将国际卫生法的内容纳入其中，教材采用夹叙夹议的方式予以阐释知识点，同时注重知识的系统性，与其他卫生法学的教材做好衔接和过渡。     

成人教育卫生法学课程案例教学方法研究

卫生法学课程案例教学是一种将理论知识和实践能力有机结合起来、培养高素质医学专业人才的有效方法.案例教学分为三个阶段:介绍案情;指出案例涉及的主要知识点,提出需要分析的主要问题;应用有关卫生法理论与卫生法律法规的规定对案件进行分析.应当正确处理案例教学与课堂理论讲授、问题教学、比较教学等教学方法的关系.     

卓越卫生法律人才实践性教学研究

我国现行卫生法律人才教育模式偏重向学生传授基本法学原理和法律知识,忽视了学生实践能力和操作能力的培养,应进一步加强具有医学与法学交叉特色的实践性教学,建立卫生法学综合实验中心,培养卓越卫生法律人才。     

英国法律教育中的教学法及启示

英国的法学教育独具特色,其教学主要通过课堂讲授与导师辅导或研讨会相结合的方式来完成。它在方便教师快速地向数量较多的学生传递知识的同时,强调学生对于教学过程的参与。本文认为英国的多元化教学手段、互动式教学模式以及重视培养学生独立学习能力的理念均值得我国的法律教学借鉴。

The role of student evaluations in a PBL centred law curriculum: towards a more holistic assessment of teaching quality

ABSTRACT

Students’ evaluations are used to measure teaching effectiveness of staff. As such they are used to assess and appraise staff. The article – taking a doctrinal rather than an educational science approach – shows that there are considerable problems with the hypothesis that students’ evaluations measure teaching effectiveness. This is even more so in systems where an overarching teaching philosophy like problem-based learning (PBL) is applied. The article identifies a working hypothesis that students do not use the teaching philosophy as primary motivator to evaluate staff, leading to a perverted incentive. Changes made to the system of evaluation in the law faculty of Maastricht University are described.     

Central Issues in Jurisprudence

Law schools have been criticised as being behind the times in predominantly adhering to the traditional lecture format combined with the casebook method. In so far as these techniques simply transmit prescribed content to students, this comes at the expense of teaching the skill crucial for success in examinations and in legal practice: problem solving. Active teaching and learning techniques seem likely to better foster the development of this skill. However, in an environment where transmission-based lectures are the norm, and students are anxious to absorb content in the (mis)belief that this holds the key to success, would they welcome such active learning or resist it? To assess this, I delivered three lectures to second year undergraduate students in the same cohort of the Law of Contract, each of which used varying degrees of active learning techniques: the first, the maximum amount practicable, the second a combination of active learning techniques and techniques traditionally used in law school lectures, and the third no active learning techniques at all. By asking students to comment on the extent to which they were engaged in the lectures and how the use of time enabled them to learn, to understand contract law, and to develop their own problem-solving skills, I aimed to see how they would react to the different techniques. Supported by the qualitative results of this pilot study, the article suggests that (1) the incorporation of active learning exercises – including those based on problems – into large lectures is perceived by students as beneficial for their learning, and even preferred over passive methods; and (2) in the typical law school environment, law teachers could also consciously mitigate the relentless pressures affecting law students by making classes more conversational, relaxed and entertaining.     

A field trip in the first week at university: perspectives from our LLB students

ABSTRACT

Field trips are a major part of the pedagogy of experience. Generally, core theoretical knowledge is developed in class before a practical field application is facilitated to link knowledge. Field trips are both observational and participatory. This paper describes how the Bachelor of Laws students at an Australian university undertook a field trip to the Parliament during their first week at university. In contrast to traditional transmission of content knowledge and teaching legal rules, this field trip was purposefully designed as an early memorable, motivating experience for students to reflect on personal learning by connecting theory and context. This structured program had supporting activities and an aligned summative assessment. Findings of this qualitative study suggested that students and academics concurred that field trips are important for learning though their perceptions about it differed. For the students, it was a valuable learning experience which contextualised learning, developed an appreciation of different learning approaches, provided networking opportunities and set them thinking about potential future careers. Study outcomes indicate that curriculum designs that integrate experiential learning and linkage activities to professional settings across the entire law course are worth exploring and embedding into the curriculum.

Through a screen,darkly: Electronic legal education in Europe

Abstract

Electronic legal education involves the use of information, communication and instructional technologies to enhance students’ learning of the law and to provide law teachers with environments and tools for teaching the law. With the fast growth of the Internet many Law schools and Law faculties are moving their education and training into web environments. This may open new ways of teaching and learning the law by providing students with an environment in which they can manage legal information and legal knowledge for their personal professional use. However, it is clear that throughout Europe there are divergent as well as convergent uses of the web and IT This article explores some of the issues inherent in this, and suggests a number of projects that would enable ICT in legal education to facilitate the aims of the Sorbonne‐Bologna process.     

Legal education in the training of health professionals in Ghana: the need for legislative and curricular reforms

The present paper critically analyses the essence of legal education in the training of medical professionals in Ghana. It argues that health professionals lack the requisite knowledge in law, especially the legal implications of medical malpractice, and calls for legislative and curricular reforms in institutions engaged in the training of health professionals to reflect a legal education component. The authors opine that the basic medical law curriculum should be focused on the kinds of legal problems that physicians encounter most frequently in practice rather than on sensational cases. The authors are of the view that the curriculum should address the clarification of central concepts in law, the ability to apply the concepts, decision‐making procedures, acquisition of legal knowledge in tortuous and criminal matters relevant to the medical profession. This view sets objectives for teaching medical law to medical students and young doctors.     

The unrecognised uses of legal education in Papua New Guinea

Abstract

POSTAL CORRESPONDENCE courses were for many years the traditional means to acquire qualifications, gain promotion or change one's career, and thus to get on in life. Radio and television came to play their respective parts in the process, and these in turn have been supplemented although not supplanted by a variety of on‐and off‐line electronic delivery modes. However, the means to learn are delivered, students must study and be assessed, and it is likely to remain necessary to retain a variety of traditional learning, teaching and assessment modes and methods, whilst building on them for the future.

In an era when the process of globalisation operates in a variety of spheres, not least in respect of education and communication, the importance of distance learning is bound to be of continuing and probably increasing importance, and the quality of the teaching delivered and the learning absorbed is crucial.

This paper, based on recent research undertaken by members of the School of Legal Studies at the University of Wolverhampton, set out to investigate some aspects of the effectiveness of law students’ distance learning with particular reference to how they acquire legal knowledge and the extent to which they take a deep or surface approach to that learning.¹
