The Law Teacher: The International Journal of Legal Education

The Law Teacher, the Journal of the Association of Law Teachers, is a fully refereed academic journal centrally concerned with legal education. in addition to articles concerned with the learning and teaching of law, it contains vital information on recent legal developments, current government and education news and book reviews.

The journal is developing an increasingly international perspective on the issues facing law teachers, and the editorial board is supported by an international advisory panel of law teachers in many different countries. This helps us to explore the difference as well as the common challanges which face us and helps you as readers to widen the base of your expertise.

It is particularly concerned to offer a service to law teacher at all levels of legal education. To this end the recent legal developments section concentrates on key developments in mainstream areas of law and book reviews section addresses the ways in which the books reviewed might be used in assisting students' learning.
