Discover how "lab-style" techniques can transform research instruction for undergraduates and graduates through the lens of legal research classes. This session explores integrating flipped classrooms with experiential learning, emphasizing hands-on exercises. This approach emphasizes active, practical exercises, encouraging students to experiment and think critically without fear of failure. We'll discuss implementation strategies, highlight key activities, and address challenges like feedback demands, scalability for large classes, and overcoming resistance from students and faculty. Join us to reimagine research instruction as an interactive, impactful experience tailored to diverse academic settings.
