John Lande (Missouri; Google Scholar), Incorporating Real-World Legal Practice Into Law School Curricula:

This annotated bibliography was prepared for the program, “Pracademically Speaking: Incorporating Real-World Legal Practice Into the Curriculum,” at the 2024 Annual Conference of the ABA Section of Dispute Resolution. It includes relevant entries from the Real Practice Systems Project Annotated Bibliography.

This includes three sections, identifying: (1) problems with legal education and licensing, (2) resources for law schools and faculty, and (3) resources for law students. It particularly focuses on teaching skills for helping clients, which is critically important because practitioners often fail to recognize and respect clients’ perspectives and interests. Teaching students to work well with clients – and counterparts, among others – can “plant a seed” that may grow when graduates are in practice. This may help them resist some foibles in legal practice.

Most of the entries are short blog posts and articles, though this also includes longer law review articles. There are links for the entries, so readers can access them with only one or two clicks.
