Where the forces differ is that electromagnetism behaves in essentially the same simple way on all scales, varying only in its

The Report's central conclusion is that, although traditional legal pedagogy is very effective in certain aspects, it overemphasizes legal
theory and underemphasizes practical skills and professional development.5 By focusing on
theory in the abstract setting of the classroom, the Report argues, traditional legal education undermines the ethical foundations of law students and fails to prepare them adequately for actual practice.6 Traditional legal education is effective in teaching students to «think like lawyers,» but needs significant improvement in teaching them to function as ethical and responsible professionals after law school.7 As I will discuss in greater detail below, in
general, the Report recommends «contextualizing» and «humanizing» legal education by integrating clinical and professional responsibility courses
into the traditional core curriculum.8 In this way, students will learn to think like lawyers in the concrete setting of actual cases and clients.9 The Report refers to pedagogical
theories developed in other educational settings and argues that these
theories show that teaching legal
theory in the context of practice will not only better prepare students to be lawyers, it will also foster development of a greater and more deeply felt sense of ethical and professional identity.10
