The reader-friendly approach of this casebook provides a hands-on, experiential learning environment that can be essential to many students’ success. Simply knowing the facts of a benchmark case is not enough; knowing how to apply the doctrine from one case to a different set of facts enhances a student’s ability to succeed in and after law school. With the practice-based exercises in every chapter, students learn to apply legal principles and concepts to real-world scenarios. Key Features: • Case Previews and Post-Case Follow-Ups. To succeed, law students must know how to deconstruct and analyze cases. Case Previews highlight the legal concepts in a case before the student reads it. Post-Case Follow-Ups summarize the important points and ramifications but also goes one step further, noting the significance of a case to current law. • Real Life Applications. Every case in a chapter is followed by Real Life Applications, which present a scenario similar to the facts in the case followed by a series of related questions. Real Life Applications challenge students to apply what they have learned and help prepare them for real-world practice. Professors can use Real Life Applications to spark class discussions or use them as individual short-answer assignments. • Applying the Concepts and Civil Procedure in Practice. These end-of-chapter exercises encourage students to synthesize chapter material and apply relevant legal doctrine and code to real-world scenarios. Students can use these exercises for self-assessment, or the professor can use them to promote class interaction. New to the Third Edition: • Current issues regarding generative AI as it relates to Rule 11 and Discovery. • The COVID-19 Pandemic’s effects on litigation. • An explanation of the U.S. Supreme Court’s latest Personal Jurisdiction cases. • A discussion of Snap Removal.

Teaching and Learning History Online: A Guide for College Instructors offers everything a new online history instructor needs in one package, including how to structure courses, integrate multimedia, and manage and grade discussions, as well as advice for department chairs on curriculum management, student advising, and more.

However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, new history instructors are rushed into online teaching with little or no training or experience, creating a need for a guide to ease the transition from classroom to online course development and teaching. A timely text, this book aims to provide both new and experienced college history teachers the information they need to develop dynamic online courses.
