Transforming Legal Education is a critical account of how we learn and teach the law. Based on a transactional approach to education that derives from John Dewey, Maharg argues for radical change not only to the production and use of theory, but to the way that law is learned and taught. The book explores new educational approaches to curriculum design and undergraduate education, and to professional education, and provides a range of international case studies of legal educational practice. Throughout, Maharg calls for greater engagement in new technologies, and a commitment to experiential learning, ethical education, and collaboration between disciplines, between institutions and between jurisdictions.
