Our objective at LearningLaw LLC is to provide customers with the most efficient and thorough mechanisms currently available for use in the process of learning the law. To achieve this objective, we look well beyond the traditional models of legal education, which are based primarily on the Socratic method and linear reading exercises (i.e., reading page one, then page two and so on). Our approach emphasizes the creation of non-linear pathways through carefully selected material. By allowing the learner to select his or her own pathway through the material, absorption and retention of the material is greatly increased. Traditional education models that are based on book reading are restrictive and often leave holes in the mental picture that the learner is building as she proceeds through material presented to her. Questions raised in the reader's mind early in her learning experience may be left unanswered for considerable time, thereby inhibiting the process of building a meaningful picture of the interconnections between concepts presented. This problem is especially acute in legal education where a single sentence can create many more questions than it answers. Traditional learning models are unable to address this problem because the learner must learn the material in the manner the author deems appropriate. By providing non-linear pathways, the learner is able to choose the learning path that best suits her needs and learning style. With LearningLaw products, the learner is in the driver's seat and able to proactively, rather than reactively, consume knowledge and create a foundation upon which subsequently learned concepts can be easily added. |
