This book takes a practical, design-based research approach to enhance and refine learning design principles for legal education. Drawing on extensive research conducted at University College London, including interviews with legal practitioners, students, and educators, it explores what sets legal education apart from other fields. It identifies what works in online courses and offers strategies to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world legal practice, making legal education more effective and affordable.
The book formulates seven essential legal skills and provides practical guidance on teaching these skills in both traditional and online learning environments. It also introduces a comprehensive set of learning design principles tailored to legal education. While the focus is on the legal field, the findings and recommendations have broader applications across various disciplines.
